B&M vs. Transgo

I am debating getting a shift kit for my car. I have an 82 camaro with a TH-200C. I've narrowed it down to one of these 2 kits. Has anybody used either of these kits? Had any problems? Very pleased? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Did you search at all? There are threads covering this exact topic, both in this forum and the Aftermarket Product Review forum. All you need to do is look for them.

Re: B&M vs. Transgo

i plan on getting a transgo kit, but i was wondering, if i got a B&M shifter would they conflict or would they work together just fine?

Re: B&M vs. Transgo

The brand of shifter has nothing to do with the brand of valve body kit.

Re: B&M vs. Transgo

I originally went with B&M and I now regret it, as it has caused shifting problems for me. I'm now installing a Trans Go kit with a few added touches from Dana at Pro Built. As far as shifters go I have a B&M ratchet shifter that I was told will have no bearing/issues at all with the Trans Go.
