There are another couple of options, I use a SAENZ box which is similar to a Jerrico, 5 speed 1:1 top, dog/crash, straight cut. Very Noisy, very strong, and you do need to match the revs. My car is 90% race, and 10% street. (Ants used to own this car). The gear lever does look a bit weird, as it is a pivot on the top, and the changing is via a shaft at the rear of the box, so it confuses most people.

The other option is a Doug Nash, available in 5 speed, in either synchromesh or dog engaged. These are very strong as well, a friend of mine had a bolt ride through the gears, and the gearbox survived, the bolt didnt!
