I agree about not needing clutchless sequential trans for street use, unless someone come sup with one for less than $10k. There is no question that they are cool but no real reason to spend the money unless you are racing in my opinion.
But there are definitely other options for Vette owners. EMCO makes a direct replacement that is awesome but its quite a bit more expensive than the MTI trans.
Hopefully the MTI trans will hold up as I believe I have one of the first customer trans out there but since my car is so much lighter than a Vette, it won't have as much stress on it.
