I am looking to put together a project car for drag racing. I have a small block that makes about 467 horses and weighs about 3100 lbs. so its not all that powerful. It is built tough with a dana 60 rear and has 5:38 gears. It was a stick car before I bought it and I put a powerglide in it. Now I am kicking around the idea about putting a stick back in it.

What I don't know is what kind of tranny to put in it. I want something tough, but don't have the budget for a Liberty, Lenco, or Jericho tranny.

I have seen the Saginaw transmissions can be bought cheaper than the muncie's but don't know what the difference is.

Would you reccomend either of the two for my application or should I start checking into richmonds?
