    V 5th is too short for any road work, I'm an AFMSX, basic, available and good splits.

    AFMSX in my '67. I like it although 5th could be a touch longer. Otherwise, I think the spacing is nice.

    PS: The 908 did that at the '81 Porsche Parade. My soon friend realized you may be able to out-drive someone but you couldn't always outspend them.

    Thanks. Any experience with AFJOS? Would S be too short for freeways road tripping at 90-100?

    I have a trans for my car which has AEIPV . It definitely keeps you busy and is fun on the hilly streets to my work , but not for the freeway . Yes , S is too short for 90-100 unless you want to drive at redline . Read gled49's post , "V is too short for road work ". Follow his advice .
