If I had a 2018 GT350 or whatever model years is affected, I wound politely ask my Ford store to put a new fork down the top of my Tremec 6160 ; tell them it shifts like there is gravel in the box instead of butter, even if it hasn't started to fail yet.Trans not right even after partial/ rebuild, electrical still drawing voltage , bucking at low prm and waiting impatiently to spend MORE time enduring the process. But first, more chi chi...
 
BTY, Happy new year, and I have 475 miles on the new motor which seems to like WOT pretty well, 1st - 4th gear working quite adequately for spirited break-in. Car to stealership for troubleshooting in 3 days. Looking forward to healthy car.
