That thing looks amazing, but i must ask why? can't you just use the stock trans case for your new gears?

I believe when your making 800+ your cast aluminum case is no longer optimal. You figure when your making a power pull your gears get a lot of load on them and start to try and spread apart. Now that you have upgraded gears the teeth won't break, instead they just try and spread even further which will put even more stress on the cast aluminum casing. Hence the brace they sell to replace 5th. Since he doesn't have that brace I believe, this is the only other option.

Plus this car is just so ballin out of control, why not have a billet case?
