What to do with my Passon A855

[FM3-4ME]

Just received my passon 5 speed after wait 7 years and being #200 on the list. In the waiting period I bought the passon 4 speed hemi od. I need your opinion what to do. Both of the transmission have 0 miles on them. Sell the 4 speed or 5 speed? Save the 5 speed for my next e body? I would need to make a good profit if I sold the 5 speed waiting that long. After tax and shipping 5 speed was $6350.

I would off not waited that long.Hope it was worth it. Keep it.

Only you can answer the question. You were willing to wait, why wouldn't you use it now? You might be able to flip it for a profit to someone that doesn't want to wait and keep the hemi OD. If you are just cruising around the OD model should do. If you are doing performance driving/racing, I would probably want the 5sp.

I wouldn't have waited that long or paid that much when you could have done a TKO or Magnum for less and have it instantly. But everyone has different wants and goals and that's what keeps the hobby going.

Use the 5 speed & sell the 4 speed, or save it and get another challenger to use it in!
My buddy has Jamie Passon's 5 speed & loves it!

I wanted the 5-speed but no availability, so I went the Hemi OD route. It has been great for my application just cruising around and occassional freeway loops. In the end, I have nothing but compliments to Jamie Passon...

Just my $0.02...

Go with a Tremec TKX 5 spd., get it in a week and then drive it like you stole it.
