I used the Quaife. Got it from Cambridge motorsports. Not cheap at
all, especially now with the pound being so strong. Sequential boxes
are nice--it's what I had in my Radical, though of course it was a
motorcycle transmission. I do actually like H pattern better because
you can pick the gear you want rather than going down through a
couple and hoping you counted right. Just a geezer preference though
I suspect.
