Tranny suggestions?
I'm thinking about selling my Tremec TKO before this 410 inches of Rodent Poison I'm building trashes it. PM me if you're looking for one.
What do you guys think I should go with? G-Force? Lenco? Liberty? Richmond? ??? Automatics are absolutely out of the question, but other than that, I'm game! Let me know what you think.

Re: Tranny suggestions?
Hey Jester, with the research I have done, I would suggest the G-force T-5. When I get my money right, that is the way I am going.

Re: Tranny suggestions?
Why not a TKO 600? For the money, it's the stoutest gearbox out there. The Gforce T5 with the upgraded mainshaft is $2500 ($2000 for the basic box plus $499 for the better mainshaft) and you still have the weaker T5 case. I'm going to use a TKO 600 behind my 393.
The richmond 5 speed won't be strong enough (450ft/lb capacity), the richmond ROD 6 speed might be okay. The liberty or a G force 5 speed (not T5) is something like $5000, that's the main reason why only harcore racers have them. Much cheaper to use an automatic.
