Yes, I have cosidered the 5-speed option, both berg and the 901. The berg is way to expensive and fifth is still .82. You just have one more gear to row through to get there. It would be good to have the close ratio 1-4, but I can't justify the cost since I'm not racing the car. The 901 option was considered too, but with the initial cost, car modifications involved (don't want to cut on my notch) and the fact that 1st is weaker and 5th is not much taller than .82, I decided against it.

My tranny guy said he could build an IRS tranny that would be tougher and have a gear set that would work too. With the 2 liter, having the tall 4th won't be a problem as it has plenty of bottom end.

I am also looking into a EFI and turbo combo for next year...if I can scare up the cash.
