RE: 97 RS 3.8L v6 6Speed
also, depending on your gear reatio of your rearend, I dont think that the 3.8 will make enough power to need a six speed. I changed my gear ratio in my 99 V6 to a 27????? ratio from a 95 Z28, Sometimes it seems I dont even need 5th gear.

if you go 3.73s, the 6speed will be good, i dont know what was in mine, but wasnt stock, redlined in 5th at about 95/100, and it was a 5speed, when i do 80 on highway on a regular basis, i got worse highway milage than around town. so a 6spd would be great if you have 3.73s or 4.10s.
