Default Toploader vs TKO 600 Subjective Shift 'Feel' Rankings

I am considering both the wide ratio Toploader and TKO 600 for my ERA 289 FIA build (mated to a 289/302).

Putting aside the obvious differences of the overdrive gear (that is a whole different discussion), which gearbox has a better 'feel'.

For a non scientific survey … in your opinion / experience …

From (1) to (10) … how would rate the ease / 'feel' of shifting for your Toploader or TKO 600 ?


(1) … feels like moving a stick thought wet concrete

(5) … about average --- OK, but nothing to write home about

(10) … feels like a well oiled rifle bolt snicking into place


For those that have experience with both … which one do you like better, in terms of shifting?


Let the shifting begin!


Thanks.
