Decisions, decisions- Transmission

I have an opportunity to purchase a WC T-5 (for about $300) to replace my non WC T-5. Not sure about the mileage on the WC T-5 but its said that 4th gear makes some noise. Heard that this may be a minor issue. Thought about getting an estimate on a fix...find out tomorrow

OR

Buy an LT 6 Speed from a Junkyard for $1500.

This car is not a daily driver but does see some flogging. About 5,000 miles per year on the street, possible track/autocross a few times per year. Engine is a L69 with some add-ons (Headers, new cam, 1.94 cylinder heads are in its future) or I might skip all of that and go ZZ4 in a few years. At some point, Its got to handle 350 hp and 400 tq.

Thanks!
Chuck
