Very Nice!

So, does that give you 6 forward gears? Tons of fun to drive, isn't it? Take off easy, and by flipping switch & shifting properly, you can reach cruising speed w/out exceeding 1500 RPM's--well, maybe a tad more, but NO strain on the engine to get from 0mph to 60mph. ....and keep left foot off the clutch pedal for many of those shifts! (Had mine switched/wired thru a 2nd dimmer switch I installed in the floor & used left foot to do the engaging/disengaging of the solenoid.

Know you enjoy it. I used to until I broke it driving too hard, like an idiot.
