swapping 5speed to Auto for race purposes only

what do you mean with getting sick of it?

well, seems it will be the TF998. The Buddy i am dealing with said its in best condition, takes easily up to 600HP, not so heavy. And i have a Buddy running the same into low 11 ET's.
I know it is a bit crazy but i really want to crack the 12 sec. :) And with the Manual tranny I have it is impossible without a power adder.
