Not Ranked
IMO, one of the biggest factors in choosing a transmission is the camshaft. When my customers order TKOs, I'll do an rpm/gear ratio calculation and figure out where they will be on cruise rpm.
Most guys want a lumpy cam and lumpy cams generally don't like to be lugged at low rpm. I'll usually pair the engine with a .82 OD to aid in that.
