Mike - I have the tremec tko and 3.31 rear. Engine runs 3000rpm at 100mph in 5th. It's quite tall - makes for great cruising, but acceleration really takes a drop from 4th to 5th. Since it's doing around 135 mph at 6000rpm in 4th, maybe I shouldn't be so worried, but them Porsches take some convincing.

If I did it again, I would go for the TKOII with the 0.8 5th gear.
