Yes! I feel that the close ratio is the way to go. The RPM is very usable between the gears from 2nd-5th. I have a 3.91 rear. First goes pretty quick and 6th I mainly use for saving gas on long trips. I have had the T56 Magnum in my car for over 4 years and never any issues.

Tremec stated that the wide ratio will be phased out eventually though as the demand is simply not there. They sell way more close ratio versions. I became a dealer and got a second Magnum to have as a spare haha!
