Re: If you could only do one... $$$
The overdrive, without question. It provides for much better driving if you go on tours or drive your car great distances, especially on freeways. The only advantage I can see the synchronous transmission offers is the need not to double clutch. I don't have a problem double clutching I have driven a Model A so much I don't even think about it. I don't see it as being cost affective.
I have heard a number of guys comment that they installed the trans so that their wife can drive the car. That strikes me as somewhat demeaning. They are saying their wife is not cable of learning the simple procedure of double clutching.
