That's impressive for the AX-15, but in my stock 98 V-6 after 20,000 miles
it was notchy and would grind some, and the same for my NV-3500 in my 95.
Hell ask Mark Kuzia about his NV-3500's in his 99 and 94 there just not the
best trans I've ever had. The 5-speed's in my opinion rule for fun factor
but the ones in our trucks, are truck trans not performance trans and even
though you've got a good one I still doubt that there the best choice for
performance.
