5 Speed swap

I’ve gotta disagree with you on the 3.83 gear being worthless in a car. Like Dion said, check out my early post (post #10), you simply need to run the appropriate rear gears.
I read what you posted. It is wrong if you have a cam much bigger than stock.
If you have a stock engine and use this transmission and a 2.76 gear, you'll still have the huge rpm drop but it won't matter as much.
What kind of dude is happy with a stock engine??
