I have a 93 M29 with a fresh rebuild.
It's gearing is a lot lower in 1-2 than the M28s and MN6s. For my application, it just doesn't work.
TDP did the rebuild, replacing synchros, blockers, shift fork and input shaft along with seals and bearings.
It is currently sitting in my shop, sealed up.
$1750.

No.
I run in the Camaro/Mustnag Challenge series. It's a spec road racing series, restricting 4th gen LT1s to 230 RWHP. So the trans has not been abused by any stretch of the imagination. It probably has 150 miles on it, if that much.
So, I never use 1st and rarely 2nd. I was looking for the more desirable 5th gear. But that only has an advantage at 1 track and it's not worth it to do a tranny swap for a single track.

First gear is 2.97:1 compared to 2.66 of the 94-02 T56's. 6th is .62 instead of .50.
