Im running a trans built by RPM Transmission. I think its a little overkill, but i love it. Here are the specs:

Gear Ratios: 2.66/1.78/1.43/1.00/.80/.62

RPM 30 spline mainshaft conversion - same as the Viper
RPM 26 spline Viper input shaft - bigger diameter than stock - same as the Viper
Full micropolish by Performance Metal(Every internal component)
Cryo treated by 300 Below
G-Force solid keys 1-6 gears - replaces stock stamped keys
Heavy duty steel 3-4 shift fork
RPM 1-2 modified shift fork - steel insert
New compressed carbon particle blocking rings
RPM bronze fork pads - replaces stock plastic pads
All new bearings and seals
All clearances set to race specs
Correct driveshaft yoke

Check out the Input shaft:
