TKO 600 versus RIchmond
I am at the point that I have to decide which five speed I am going to put in my 67 roadster. I had a Richmond in my 66, and absolutely loved it, with the 3.08 s that I put in the back, it was perfectly geared. Unfortunately, I am in Canada, and with our dollar right now these trans have gone through the roof. Which is making me consider a Tremec 5 speed, they are quite a bit cheaper than the Richmond, but will it really fit?, what gears do I need to run for optimal all around performance, what is the best fifth gear ratio ( they offer two) , do I need to shorten the driveshaft?, any help would be appreciated.
