I put in a 6 speed. Now it cruises at 2100 RPM. I can drive it for hours and although it doesn't sound as "cool", I don't need to wear earplugs. Wanna look stupid? Drive a Cobra with earplugs. EVERYBODY laughs at you!!!
I have the t56 in my superformance and love it when cruising. If you want to make noise stay in fourth, if you want to cruise quietly (???) and economically (???) then keep doing some more research. I went with the viper t56 for the added strength FWIW... good luck..
Have the best of both worlds, put in a 5 speed and "graft" a four speed shifter to it to look like a four speed........That's what I did in my 65 Fastback....and love it....how many people are gonna crawl under your car to see what trans you have in it????????
At car shows or cruise nite, they ask if I have a four speed in the car, I tell them YES, and I do, the trans has four speeds, it also has five speeds, but they didn't ask that........
