Remember a TKO 5 speed has pretty much the same gearing as a 4 speed except for 1st and of course 5th,I don't remember what first gear is but you better be shifting real quick and if it's a long distance between lights with a 4 speed the motor will max out and the 5 speed will just keep on going by.Everyone has their own choice the 5 speed just happens to be mine for all around fun

Well ya a 5 speed would be the way to go. I was thinking about getting one of them TKO jobers but after talking to a guy who had to hack off part of his tranny crossmember to get the thing to fit I just don't know If I want to risk getting the kit. I know it may fit with out a problem but then again I don't want to hack the frame on my 340 4-speed Dart if you know what I mean.

But a 5 speed sure would be nice. I could put in some 4.10's and still drive on the freeway and do the speed limit at 2500 RPM.
