Looks pretty decent to me.
That second column is excellent IMO -- didn't see that... only saw this:

Our Street 5-Speed kits are currently available with the preferred 2.94, 1.94, 1.34, 1.00 ratios in gears 1 thru 4.

Yep, it would work really well. I just doubt it would last. I did a little research and it sounds like it will be noisy in this configuration as well. I'll call to humor myself on Monday.

Matt, what are the details on your car and motor? I almost went with SB2 stuff myself... curious to see what you're doing.

The linkage room needed for my car wasn't that bad really.

Truck is a 97 Sonoma that has been de-airbagged now rides on coil overs all around with a 3 link. ill be reposting a build thread soon.

motor is a strait RCR built motor one of D. Laurences pet motors. made roughly 830 hp. winds to 9800rpm i can post up a pic if you like?

how far does the linkage protrude from the side of the trans?

It's your thread dude so go for it.

I would def be putting a bulletproof trans behind that motor if it were me. Sounds like you are not detuning the motor at all.

What are your plans for this truck? Much street driving planned?
