Going to beat the ever loving shit out of the prototype before I sell a single one.
Test car we'll be using runs about 1-1.5 car lengths slower to ~130ish than a known 122-124 trapping C5 Vette
New 5th gear for the R154 - how about a taller overdrive?

How are you going to be doing the GB if/when they approve it? Going to be taking deposits, or just whomever has the cash at the time gets lucky?
I am going to produce 5 sets. I will be offering rebuild services for 5 transmissions.
That'll be it until the next time I get some free time to do another set Hopefully in a month or so, after those transmissions (if anyone has me do any work) are done, I'll have the time to do another set of 4-5

Hopefully in a month or so, after those transmissions (if anyone has me do any work) are done, I'll have the time to do another set of 4-5So your going to be doing them regularly then? I want one for sure, but I have to get the car running and moving first.
I'm not going to guarantee that. Could be a month, could be a year, could be never again.
Basically, I'm going to do them in very small runs when I can.

Nope, if you've got someone local to do the work, or want to tackle it yourself, I'm perfectly fine with that!
Let me know as well. I can at least do the deposit, as hopefully you will have that system while you road test everything.
Pics of a transmission getting 100% blueprinted
And sorry guys, someone's already contacted me about buying the blueprinted transmission. The only things getting re-used are the gearsets and shafts.
All new snap rings, blueprinted to proper specs. All new spacers / bearings / synchros / seals.
New 5th gear on the right, old one on the left.
Plan is to finish this up by this weekend and drop the transmission off with Jeff for installation and testing!
