I haven't seen them in a while, but if I blew my tranny I'd be after one of those hybrid gearsets where the first two or three gears are dogcut.

If you are going to continue to take your car to the strip I'd go with PPGs.

http://www.andrewtechautomotive.com/...nsmissions.htm

1-4 Helical and stock 5th
or
1-2 straight 3-4 helical and stock 5th

I know its a lot but its well worth the investment if you do plan on going down the strip.

I agree gear sets are over rated; invest in some nikes and do it stone age style. (flintstones "sp?")
