Faceplated 833 4 Speed
I have a face plated 18 spline in my 68 GTS. Liberty supplied the gear set circa 2014 and it is still alive an well. It lived in my 66 Charger behind a few big blocks before it grew a G Force GF5R in 2016.
The face plated 4 speed has been in my GTS for three seasons. Two with a nitrous assisted 451" and last season with the much, much stouter 511". The only maintenance required to the face plates is dressing teeth on the sliders. The face plates are HARD and do not seem to wear. I tear it down every summer and that is about the only normal wear item.
I have had some other issues with the transmission rear mainshaft bearing due to tire shake.
Running Redline medium weight shock proof gear oil was an eye opener for me. The transmission is much quieter and still shifts effortlessly.
I assume this particular transmission is still alive due a) running a clutch tamer and b) running small tire aka 275/60/15 on the charger and a bias 235-60-14 on the GTS.
