Oh puhlease!
P&P head! No doubt, the head work is worth 10 times the 6 speed is, any
day!

You want practical? Save yourself a few grand and swap out your .89 5th
gear and use a taller 5th gear. You dont use it on the rally scene, do
you? So whats the problem? Swap it out for a .80, .75 or my choice, a .71
if you want 5th gear cruising practicality and economy.
