Ed and Jim,

I forgot completely about this until I was thinking more about your car this evening. One of my friends built a naturally aspirated 460 powered cobra with a Richmond Gear 5 speed but after about 1500 miles, he decided to completely redo the car (he was bored!). The second time around he rebuilt his fresh 460 with a .100" overbore and lower compression pistons and then installed a Vortech YS supercharger. He also went with an automatic trans and has the Richmond 5 speed sitting in his shop--complete with the flywheel, clutch and scattershield for a 460. If you are interested, I can get you his contact information. He's a really good guy and I'm sure he would give you a great deal on the trans. He's located in Jacksonville, FL...

Mike
