The TREMEC TKX 5-speed transmission was designed for classic cars and trucks, featuring a compact case that fits many factory transmission tunnels with little or no modification.

Just ask the owner of this 1959 Corvette, who recently drove it from Detroit to Lincoln, Nebraska, on Pavement Pounder Evets.

How do you choose between a 5-speed and a 6-speed transmission?

It's one of the most common questions enthusiasts ask when planning a build.

For many classic cars and trucks, the TREMEC TKX 5-speed transmission is the perfect solution thanks to its compact size, excellent shift quality and ability to fit many factory transmission tunnels with little or no modification. The Magnum 6-speed transmission brings added torque capacity, double overdrive and expanded gearing options for drivers looking to maximize performance and highway cruising capability.

The right choice depends on your vehicle, engine combination and how you plan to use it.

Not sure which one belongs in your project? This guide breaks down the key differences and helps you choose the best transmission for your build: https://tremec-blog.com/which-manual-transmission-is-best-for-my-build-tremec-tkx-5-speed-or-magnum-6-speed/

Most sweepstakes end when the prizes are awarded. This story was just getting started.

Congratulations to Bob Church (left), winner of the Centerforce Clutch Kit sweepstakes, and Phil Jacobs (right), winner of the TREMEC TKX 5-speed transmission sweepstakes during the 2026 Motor City to Wheel Hub Live road trip.

In a great example of the camaraderie that develops during these events, both Bob and Phil chose to pass their prizes along to fellow participant Jason Taylor (center) for his 1968 Chevrolet C10 project that we hope to see soon on future Pavement Pounder Events adventures.

A huge thank you to Tremec Transmissions and Centerforce® Clutches for providing these incredible prizes and helping create moments like this. We can't wait to see Jason's C10 on the road with its new drivetrain combination.
