Happy New Year. I'd like to thank every customer for making the JT5 5 speed conversion such a success. In 32 years of business I would have never dreamed a product could be produced this long ( 18 years ) and still have the demand. I'm am dedicated to constantly improving this kit. The success of our 4 Speed Muncie program will allow me to use some of that design criteria for future JT5 units.

Lately we have seen a rash of noise issues related with JT5 installations using Fidanza alloy flywheels. We have documented gear box rattling noises as well as harmonic gear noises due to using these wheels. Therefore we strongly suggest not using them. Every JT5 is load tested for noise before it leaves our shop. The noise will not damage the unit.
