Cobra 29,
Thanks Rich,
This is what I have for limited road and track use!

GF5R is a road race transmission like the Jerico, and they have to be driven fast but once you are used to them they are the ticket, very little HP loss much easier to work on than a normal type transmission, and you dont have the syncro problems.
G-force make a nice T56 gear set, and if you use the Viper case the gear lever will be in a more forward position than the Ford case, I think the GM T56 is further back again they all vary. The T56 has triple cone syncros so they are a lot better for hard use than the TKO, which going by the CC Posts, really a road use transmission "ONLY"

All the above transmissions including the T56 race trans are around USD$6000, another option is to get a nice 4speed Toploader with alloy case from David Kee, alloy case not recommended for hard use drag racing, much cheaper than the above transmissions and what I would go for but I wanted a five speed race trans so I went for the Jerico, and one thing to bear in mind the race transmissions use dog rings like blocks that fit into slots in the gears and these round off/chip and may need replacing over time, but I know guys with 840bhp and Jerico Five speeds (magnesium case 80Ibs all up) that have not touched them for 8 years use and more, but these cars are mainly track use, so it doesnt really matter if you do bearings and dog rings every few years!
