Hello All,

I just joined Stovebolt and am excited to see so much knowledge and experience being shared. I just started working on a 51 Chevy 5 Window and had the 235 rebuilt. I'm planning on installing the bolt on disc brake set up from Helix and would like to upgrade the 3 gear manual transmission set up to a 5 gear, but don't want to have to purchase a $500 adapter. Anyone have any recommendations on a transmission and rear end set up or experience with the Helix brand set up? Helix seems to be the most affordable.
