I'd say your Carb and Cam are the main reason for these 6th gear issues. The LSX engine with EFI will have none of these problems.

That info on the trannies goes against everything i've seen and read, but you know more about this than I do, so I suppose I am wrong on that, and you are right about cam and carb, but I thought I recalled that steves motor had a fairly big cam and heads? Even if it didn't I figured the FI would take care of it. IF not he should have no problem with the overdrive, but a steeper gear ration would still be better for performance
