[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 16241668, member: 9628"] I have no idea what is (and has been) in development at Ford, but a better current question is......What can the DCT handle for power mods? We are currently at 760HP, it is not unreasonable to think that a minimum of 150HP could be added by an owner once the aftermarket gets up to speed, will the DCT be up to that task...........900+HP? I don't remember what the 900 and 1000HP optioned Super Snakes have for a 6 speed, or the Shelby 1000, but I have not heard owners over on Team Shelby discussing how their 6 speed manual (probably a variation, maybe modded of the TR-6060) have been coming apart. For that matter, I have heard no complaints from any 2013/14 850HP Super Snake owner either and that is the oem Ford TR-6060..........So in reality, it may have continued on into the 900 and 1000HP optioned cars with only a clutch and shifter upgrade? If a variation of the current 6 speed will hold the power, I can't see why a bell housing couldn't be retro'ed to the S550............or a completely new box with more manual gears. That is one of the main things I have heard people on these forums complain about.......No manual option.......as was mentioned above......for the fun of it, not to mention more driver interaction.
