Convince me to put a TKX in my Dart

Good points! We shall see :)

By the way, I can drop the transmission independently of the bell housing as I have it, with the current amount of cutting. I agree, it's so much easier. Not sure what is different about our cars that made you unable to without doing extra work/cutting/fab. Might be related to the size and shape of the T-56. I've pulled it out and reinstalled so many times, I decided to time myself. It's about 3 minutes to pull or reinstall, or 5 minutes if you include removing/reinstalling the bell afterwards. One of the reasons I like the TKX is because it weighs 90lbs, so I can manipulate it very easily with one hand while using the other to operate a jack, and get the splines to line up quickly.
