I think I am going automatic over winter so I am putting up for sale everything manual that is in my car right now. The entire setup has about 6000 miles on it and maybe 30 passes. Here's the list:

GForce T5--Helical Cut Dog ring gearset, 9310 upgraded mainshaft, OEM Borg Warner case and bellhousing. It has the 2.92 first gear ratio still has 5th gear, has the GForce billet steel cluster support. The kit also came with the bronze shift forks and of course a steel bearing retainer on the 26 spline input shaft. The trans has never had anything in it except either Royal Purple Syncromax of GForce's GF2000 fluid. GForce says this transmission with the upgraded mainshaft will handle roughly 600 hp or 500 ft-lb. or torque in a 3300 lb. vehicle running drag radials. I am running 420rwhp and I have shifted it many times at 7000rpm without a hiccup, the higher you rev it, the smoother this trans shifts. This trans has been worked on by Fritz at FSR Performance, everything checked out just fine, there are no syncros to wear out, it looks brand new inside. It is in the car right now.

Also with the transmission is a Pro 5.0 shifter with their "Power Stick" handle and a Hurst Sidewinder shift knob.

Connecting the trans to the engine is a Spec Stage 2 clutch and a Fidanza billet steel flywheel, neutral balanced but I can get the balance weights for 28 or 50oz. Also included is a Maximum Motorsports clutch quadrant and Maximum Motorsports OEM clutch cable, and I have a UPR firewall adjuster for the cable.

Heres the price breakdown:

My receipt from GForce is $2280
The flywheel came from AD Performance--$250
The clutch was $300
Shifter costs $200 plus the $30 handle
Hurst knob was $50
Maximum Motorsports quadrant and cable was $100
UPR double lock firewall adjuster was $35

I would be asking $2200 delivered to you for the entire setup, not interested right now in splitting it up but I would possibly consider it depending on the details. These pics are from GForce's website, its still in the car but its the same thing, couple of vids also.

I know my buddy has a fresh C4 with a trans brake and a TCI 3500 ish converter I beleive with flexplate, and Aeroquip lines to a trans cooler. He was looking to go 5 speed. If you want PM me if nobody snags it. Ill give you his number.

Thanks but not interested in trades unless it's an overdrive. I will be switching to a 4R70W or AOD-E.

Have you decided which controller your going to use? Would you consider an AOD (I'm not sure how much power you are making)?

OD and lockup will be on switches for me to control. I haven't looked much into controllers, just reading on clickclickracing.com a bit. Not too sure about the AOD, I'm at 420rwhp and the bottle goes up to another 300 if I get the balls to use it all. Realistically I can't see myself spraying it much more than 150, if at all.
