Keep in mind, folks, the commonly used (currently) Tremec 6-Speed ceases @ 650 lb-ft. Their 700 lb-ft. version is BIGGER...doesn't fit the Viper, currently, and probably not the C7...or the Alpha Camaro...or the Mustang. NOT even the gargantuan 'Cats...

Anyone else with a 700+-capable trans suffers the same fate...SIZE-PACKAGING.

You can build all manner of hp., but you can only USE 650 lb-ft. And TORQUE is what launches these cars. So with Torque Management ONLY fully functional on AWD and/or Dual Clutch/Automatic transmissions, there's a mechanical issue EVERYONE must address...including folks "dreaming" of 750+ hp Top Fool engines...

Time...and of course MONEY...IF EVER!
