2008 vintage Keisler here. About 50k miles. Leaks lke a sieve - everywhere. Nice puddle when parking. Now balking bad when cold. From neutral, have to bump a few other
gears and touch throttle to get it into gear. Has always balked when cold, now much more pronounced, afraid to break Hurst shifter through excessive pressure. Anyone else?
 
Sounds like you should rebuild the poor thing but at 50,000????? That's a pretty short life for a standard, wonder if that tranny was originally built for small blocks?
