That is what the main guy at Pro-Motion told me last year while I was at the FFW Gainesville race. There are a few other beefed-up parts that he mentioned but I can not remember them right now.
as far as i know the only big differences are between the standard Tremac and the TKO series.....from what I understand the only difference between a 1 and 2 is that the 2 really doesn't have a 5th gear per say, its more of a road race trans.

Ok the tko 2 is alittle stronger but by only 50. But Sam is right. It's for a road race car not a drag car. The ideal thing to do is get the TKO 2 and put a TKO 1 5th gear cluster in it. -Mark

I would go with the TKO 2 also. Just less things you won't have to worry about. You don't have to be at high RPM launches for that Tranny to feel some serious tourque.
Any car that pulls them pizza cutters off the ground is definately a valid customer for a bigger input shaft. Not required but nice.
