I decided a change from my modded LG4 had come this past summer and stuck in the HO Deluxe. In comparison, the motor is a rocket ship. I've always enjoyed my car, but the fun this rascal causes should be illegal--shoot, it is! Do a search on my name and you'll find some pics and info about the swap.

No problems with my stock non-world class T5, though I had to replace the flexplate that the HO comes with with a flywheel (I used a lightweight piece, 16 instead of the 30 pounder). I don't rod the car, so I don't think any problems will arise with the tranny, the same with my stock 3.23's. I really enjoy the ratio (you may have 3.08's). You can drop into fourth at 70 to pass--and I mean PASS! Check the following link for tech info on ratios, but don't take anything for gospel:
