I've heard talk of people thinking about it but have never seen any factual attempts. These things need a sixth gear.
I was pondering, and it probably wouldn't be toooooooo terribly difficult to have a bell housing adapter made for something like a 7th gen and then have a custom input shaft in a longer length made. Are there any other ideas floating around out there? -------------------- |

Using the 7th gen GTS tranny would pretty much be the only option, with a custom bellhousing, mounts, and axles. It would probably hold up under 250whp just fine, but as mentioned, the gearing is even shorter in the 6-speed than the 5-speed. The only option there would be to somehow increase the final drive, either with a custom gearset, or larger diameter tires....
