Rick-

I'm going with the G-Force behind my big block. My reasons are first, the T-5 just shifts much nicer than a TKO. I hate balky or clunky shifting transmissions. Second, its about 25 lb lighter. Next- I can't remember where I read this, but the TKO has more internal friction and thus more power is lost on the way to the rear wheels.

I also visited the G-Force shop. A very impressive operation. I was going with the TKO with .82 fifth and a 3:31 rear, but now I'm going with the T-5, .75 fifth and 3:54 rear. I'm also using the Quicktime bellhousing, so if this is a total bust, I can still go back to the TKO.
