From what I was told this has been put into the trash. The gears didn't make that much more of a difference and this upgrade was going to cost something like 10 grand to do. Which to me is a super-unrealistic price any way.

Its sad that no one wants to figure out a way to maybe take some of the size off the first three gears and beef up the last three (at least 4 & 5). Then I might actually consider keeping the 6sp instead of aiming for a Shep 5sp.

The fact is that even if it could be made, it would be more money then a Shep 5spd. This being because the gears would have to be custom, the tooling cost's ...etc. I had to give up on this along time ago, i'm going with a Shep built 5 spd. I suggest you gents do the same.

Now, if you're saying the tooling costs were going to be $10,000 that's one thing. It doesn't make sense for a mediocre upgrade to cost so much, so I am going to chalk this up as hearsay for the moment.
I may just put a call into Jon myself to see if I can get some direct answers.
