My TKO is smooth as silk. BUT, I never park it in gear (check the multitude of "TKO Stuck in Gear" threads). I went with the .64 OD fifth gear and it allows me to cruise on the highway at 2000 RPM where the wind noise is actually louder than the pipes. The first four gears are actually pretty close to the wide ratio TL and my rear is 3.54. In fact, if I could go back and change any of it I wouldn't -- I'd keep it exactly the way it is.

Centerforce. Remember though that the TKO600 is not Ford splined, it's a Chevy, so you're kind of using a Chevy driven-disc along with your Ford type pressure plate. It works very well though.
