Transmission Options
I have a '58 F-100 with a 360 W (boring cylinders change the displacement) that I rebuilt. The major modifications I made to the motor are listed in my signature. I have a FMX transmission in it now that I haven't been satisfied with from day one.
I am very seriously considering changing to a manual transmission to get rid of my headaches.
I also have a '92 F-150 that has the 5 speed "mazda" transmission. I am considering getting another transmission like what is in my '92 for the '58. My main concern is how will the mazda trans hold up behind the built and bored 351 W.
Are there any suggestions of good manual transmissions for street driving with a little 'goosin' (and maybe the occasional burnout) every now and then?
Thanks for the input.

Well I like the sounds of no hydraulics. What vehicle does this come out of? and I wonder if I will need to build up the tranny like you did for my setup. It's not near as wild as what you had in your mustang but it is stronger than stock by quite a bit I'd say. est. 350-400 hp
