VN V6, nothing special
Could always go a t350 or t400?

Sure you lose 4th gear but you know a shitload of places can build then bulletproof (as apposed to the t700 that has a lot of guess work with who can build it)
And at 100km's you will probably rev at about 2500? (assuming you have 3.08's)

VR Brolina 3.8 Turbo
Ebay US has them for around $70each, we grabbed a couple of them a few months back. Cannot for the life of me figure out what they were called, were from some speedway store and they were for chevy v6 to chevy v8, despite the chevy 6 and the buick 6 having different degree engines they share the same pattern for gbox
