We want to keep the factory rear end under it but would like for it to go a little faster. Has anyone put a 5 speed tranny in one or have some advise of what to do. Thanks for the input.

It was very expensive and time consuming. Granted, getting all of the parts to make a small input shaft New Process 5sp OD match a Pontiac block/bellhousing is probably way more complicated than chevy-chevy. Bottom line...it only gained me about 200 RPM. 22.5's or 24.5 rear tires would probably net more
