They turned out a limited number of Macho TA's in 1977 and were sold through their father's Pontiac dealership and moved very quickly out the door. Due to their tremendous success, they formed DKM Design and Performance, Inc. in 1978. They made 203 1978 Macho Trans Am and another 200+ in 1979 using the Pontiac 400 engine.DKM also opened up the hood scoop to restore full breathing to the modified engine. They also modified the oil system by using what was called an ""oil pressure restorer"" by H-O Racing Specialties. It consisted of a canister with a one-quart oil capacity mounted on the firewall and pressurized. If oil sloshed away from the dry-sump oil pick-up in the oil pan, a valve opened up and oil surged into the engine to fill any gaps in oil pressure. The Macho Trans Am could receive 4-speed Borg-Warner, an optional 5-speed Doug Nash transmission, or the automatic .
