I have become aware of a company that is looking at making a heavy duty, close-ratio gearset for the T-5 transmission.
The proposed gears would be:
2.51
1.75
1.30
1.00
0.79
These would be hardened gears that should be able to take somewhere around 500 ft/lbs of torque.
This would be nearly perfect ratios for a Cobra. See this thread for more info on optimum ratios:

The company is Astro Performance:

Tony, the owner, is trying to see if there is enough interest to justify making these.
If you have an interest, let him know. Call him at: 866-253-0019 or e-mail him at:
tony@astroperformance.com
If he gets enough positive feedback, we should have a very good alternative available for gearing.

Edit: I am updating this because they are at the decision stage concerning making these. See the bottom of this thread for the new information.
