5th gear locking collar, 5th and Reverse synchro's run about $250 so It's a fairly cheap fix Except you need a specail tool to pull the freaken bearing off the ouput shaft and that is what makes it a freaken bitch..

The performance gain you will get with the Guru will be worth it, let alone the realiability improvements!

Several drag guys have improved by up to 1 sec just by bolting on the gearbox. Let alone once they really learn how to drive it!

It is amazing how many people in all forms of racing will spend heaps of money on engines but then foregt about the gearbox and the gains that can be made.
