Well, I finally got a chance to install the new Keisler 5 speed this week. I must say that it is a well engineered package. Other than a couple small tweaks to the new crossmember and my screwup dinging the pilot bearing it went well.
The maiden voyage went well. Right now the shifter is very stiff and taking a bit to get used to. Hopefully it will loosen up a little bit. The overdrive gear is very nice. I can actually hear the radio now while driving at highway speeds. And the first gear is awesome. It launches very hard off the line like it has a steep set of gears in the rear end.
So all in all I'm very happy with it.
Thanks again for all your input.
