Just for your knowledge. Autotrannies can only reliably hold ~200whp. After that they start to give out.

Do the swap.

As for the clutches, the NEW GK's clutches suck ass, but the RD's weren't so bad. I've got 65,000 Miles on mine.

Where can you get the 6 speed tranny?? I thought It was only 5 for our cars.

Also on the tranny subject, think its possible to do paddle shifters??(shifters on the steering wheel)
