Default Re: Best 4-Speed SS Of All Time?

I sincerely believe Ronny Sox should occupy that position. Granted we have some great current day gear jammers, and I wouldn't take anything away from them. Something that should be considered in comparison is the equipment used. Sox, Landy, etc. had only factory cases with self modified internals (sliders/every other tooth ground off, modified shifting forks etc.) They had no Jerico or G-Force technoligy. Clutches back the were primitive by today's standards as well (3,200 + # pressure plates). How many of today's drivers could keep up without missing gears with that old stuff? Just askin and mean no disrespect.
