    Why the Steel Flywheel again?
    Inertia, less chatter. And the spec 5 can only be run on steel.

    I say do they Viper T-56. Im sure one of the Auto trannys will be a bit faster but there is nothing like a manual IMO.

    What gears are you running and how are the street manners?

    What do you tach at around 65 MPH?

    Running 3.55 gears and run at about 2,800 rpm going 65-70mph.
    I got 18mpg driving 1200 miles back from atlanta when I originally bought the car.
    Never really checked mpg after that.

    And saying an auto is no fun on the street is wrong. With this much power traction is the only issue and a stick would make it that much harder.
