Thank you sir...hope to be able to work with you soon.
Rick installed those gears in my 4L and they've been awesome. Only a few thousand miles on them so far and no track days yet but they're excellent for the street, the 1-2 shift is soooooo much better, rev matching works perfectly, and it basically is how the tranny should have come from the factory.

I was thinking that a 10-15mph drop in each of 2-5 would seem "good". Those and a taller 6th that would drop 500rpm off highway speeds and I'd start dailying it, despite my 110mi commute.
Very nice write up and even nicer build. Is there anyway we could get some more pictures of the interior of your car? I love what you did with the wood shift **** and the inserts.

Yes, a proper clutch to hold the power and remain smooth along with a lightweight flywheel is being used in the 4.5L conversions.
This was actually my biggest concern with the whole thing since I absolutely love the stock clutch/throw feel as its so equally weighted. After 15mins in the demo cars I actually forgot the clutch wasn't factory. The flywheel spins at a nice rate and very minimal chatter too.
