diegokid Before you buy that TKO trans, Check ouy the new super street Richmond 5-spd. It has a2.87 first gear and a wide ratio with a .78 overdrive. The 3 spd with overdrive trans is not a high HP or Torque rated trans. The Richmond is 600 HP and Torque. The price is going to be about the same. IMO I think the richmond is a better engineered trans. I run a 6spd Richmond on the street works nice but I got a 3.25 first gear and never use it with a 3.31 rearend gearing. What rearend gearing are you going with?? You don't need anything or 3.00 with a 3.07 rearend. Even less with a higher gear in any cobra, unless you are doing alot of parades. Rick L.
