Ouch...thats alot of torque....im in the same boat buddy, im waiting for the C2gas gears right now...about 3 more weeks left...:applaud: :applaud: :thumbup:
Ahh man. We know how you feel.
I still have an eu GTS tranny in, like waiting for time to swap the new tranny in ( it is sitting in the garage), but it is much shorter then the GT, but its even longer then the US GTS. Im not sure if you will love the GTS tranny at all. But prolly better to resell a 6sp then a 5sp GT.
Lets see how Smaay will like his straight cut gears in the near future (they are just different).

I'm saying that if you're a 1/4-mile junkie, the US 6-speed tranny is not a good option, as it will slow you down. I think the Euro GT 6-speed tranny might be the better option, if you want 6 gears. Personally, I like my 6-speed tranny. When I was N/A and driving the 5-speed, I always felt like I needed to shift into 6th gear, and now, I don't have the longing, cuz I can shift into 6th gear
Also, it's fun to have the 6-speed and LSD in the twisties. I'm not sure that there's an LSD for the 5-speed, though I could be wrong.
labor for re-assembling the engine was about $1100
Pistons & rods approx $1300
Machine work w/ aluminum deck fabrication/ o-ringing : $700
Copper head gasket $200
This has been over a year long process and i can't remember exact figures off the top of my head.
The butt dyno tells me the extra displacement is worth it, i felt a difference n/a that there was more pull there.

you should get faster spoolup due to the extra displacement and a bit more torque
