I put this car through hell. I bought it off my friends sister with siezed motor (2.8), aparently she ran it out of oil. I then put 4 more 2.8's and one 3.1 through it. The stock tranny has lasted through it all. I was mainly testing these motors to see how tough they were. The 3 2.8's died from top end issues and can be fixed (cheaper to get and swap a motor though) the other 2.8 had an oiling issue and is siezed the 3.1 broke a connecting rod and tried to escape out of the engine block. This car was field bagged, rallied, jumped, held on the rev limiter, etc. These are tough little cars.
