The 'shock loading' that occurs on those 5sp boxes gear sets is just stupid when using a 'puk' style clutch with a heavy plate. I usto run a 8puk with 3000puound pressure plate in my old gc8 my biggest mistake eva. I now just run the stock exeedy organic in my 6sp and she works as a great fuse. Id rather keep replacing clutches over boxes :P
