hell, in all truth, if you have the money, go for a T56 6>5
that would be a waste..

It's just my opinion but I would look into G Force gearsthat arestraight cut and havedog ring engagement. Turning a syncronized transmission 6500+ it's going to be easy to miss a gear unless you aren't going to power shift. If you are going to power shift everytime you miss a gear at 7000 rpm more than likely you are going to have to put a blocker ring on that gear. I've been there and done that with a Toploader and a Muncie.

I am not a fan of how the T5 shifts

Also the TKO will probably be my last tranny I would need to buy
