I have a close ratio (2.95 1st, .73 5th installed) T5-Z with a Hurst shifter behind a stout 351W. Box is filled with Moble 1
synthetic ATF and now has 15,000 trouble free miles on it. If Honda like shifting is what you're after, this is it.
That being said, noting the above, it looks like Tremec now has a close ratio 5 speed. Might be worth a look first.
