This is just a "FWIT" answer. I really thought I wanted a Metric 200 for my project. There are a lot them in stockers now.

Someone might sway my opinion on this but, from talking with a couple different racers, they may not be as great as they seem. They have been described to me as being "fragile". As in requiring the transmission to need to be freshend between 50-150 passes. Here again, take it as a comment, I'm passing along second hand information.

I'm going with the t-350 on my crate motor project. Down the road, once I get the car running and established. I may look at a metric-200 again.
