these so far. My advice is to just put in the redesigned 5th
gear. I wouldn't bother with trying to get anything taller in
there. It will be a lot of research, a good bit more money, a
harder installation, and may end up popping out again.<br>

Just in case you need this:

<div>My 5th gear popout has gotten BAD! I can't maintain speed
and keep it in gear anymore, even trying to hold the shifter
in place it just starts to grind. I do a lot of freeway
driving and 5000 rpm in 4th gear for miles gets tiring (not to
mention expensive at the gas pump!).</div>
<div>My first thought is to get a tranny from a junk yard and
build it with new parts (slowly as the budget allows) since
everything in mine is 19 years old and has 123000 miles on
it. Has anyone ever replaced the B13 5th gear with a taller
gear for better cruising mileage? My dream would be a 6th
gear but I've looked at a Spec-V 6 speed swap and it looks
like a LOT of $ and a LOT of work.</div>

</div>
<div>My other option is to give up and sell it which would suck.<br>

<div>Any thoughts or advice?<br>
