Richmond 5-speed conversion bracket
We have made a very nice direct fit bracket for a Richmond 5 Speed transmission conversion the rear tranmission crossmember bracket on a midyear Corvette. Up till now everyone has recommended modifying the original which we felt was not a good remedy. Richmond Gear does not offer a bracket nor does anyone else that we could find! We had a bracket made that is clean, strong and bolts right in. Because they are each hand made in small quantity, the price is 115.00 each. It is better than spending a whole weekend modifying your old one and haveing a part that you are probably not happy with! We have pics available. Thanks!

What changed between a Doug Nash and Richmond
If I recal correctly, the Doug Nash 4+1 was bought by Richmond?? The DN used to have a few problems of its own, so are the Richmonds any better, what were the improvements if any? The Tremec is certainly out of my price range, but a Richmond or Doug Nash unit might be workable.
