OMG I'm soooooooo glad to hear you're redecorating your dining room!

Once you're making the torque that a 450hp setup delivers, the length of the gears will no longer matter. They'll all be short. Better hold on to those other trannies as spares "just in case".

...I just found a totalled '99 GSX near me. :threadwhore:

BTW: Gas is 2.64 gal down the block from me, and 93 octane is less than $3. I'm all like GTMFO. :gtfo: I'm just gearing up for winter projects. We could all use the extra cash, right? If gas keeps doing this, it's going to be an interesting spring.
