I thought if cost is a big factor then changing out the rear end would work for you. I spent around 1400 including shorting the drive shaft, TV cable and longer speedo cable.

Do the same folks own TransPro?? I had a 5 speed rebuilt there back in '97 and it took 5-6 trips back to them to get it right, when the warranty went out so did the tranny. I have since had friends that race have tranny's built there and no issues...was the 1400 you doing the install or them?
