Turk/Duane/Jeff-
I am also going to use the TKO II, but with a 3.31 rear. Even with that I am worried that 1st will be useless, but Doug at ERA and others have said that it should work fine. With a 3.54, you very well may end of with a 3 speed and overdrive- which really should not be a problem given the amount of torque these engines generate.

I was tossing around the idea of using the Richmond 5-speed, but I have read and been told by others that the Richmond does not shift nearly as well as the TKO (Can't independently verify this b/c I haven't driven either, but that is what I have heard).

Therefore, TKO II and 3.31 for me.

That's my.02
