Thanks Gary. I am surprised that your rpms are so high at 60-65 with a 5th gear.

One of the reasons, besides cost, that made me install a F100 trans is that Mitchell does not have a syncho from 2nd to 1st gear. Many times i will instantly shift from second to first while doing 5-15 MPH. You cant do that with Mitchell.
