Yeah they always do write ups of that kind of stuff in the magazines "the next best thing" and "you can't live without it", the one thing that they fail to tell you is that you would have to second mortgage your house to buy all the parts that they suggest.
I saw an awesome article about using a f#rd tranny and an over/under drive unit, gave you something like 8 gears, from hole shot to .25 overdrive, the best of everything.... they even made it seem like it was a budget deal , they used a junkyard tranny, they didn't mentoin that the over/under drive unit, was around $6000! ouch! I don't know if I will ever have that kind of money to buy just one piece of a project.
