So how difficult would it be to change the 5th gear from a 951? I've always wanted to get a 968 trans w/custom gears from 3rd through 6th, but that would be pretty expensive, and, there's the speedo prob- of course, I'm always thinking about things I can't afford...

Steve- what do you have the spreadsheet on- MS Word or something?

Read my mind. I'm going to be installing the 5th gear from the early 944NA car for a 12% taller 5th gear on my 951. That should equate to exactly 30mph/1000rpm. So at 180mph, I'll be pulling 6000rpm. To get 195mph@6500rpm, i'd just have to make sure I have 432bhp@6500rpm...

What is the difference between a US spec 951 Tranny and a Euro spec tranny?
