Is it better to use the mx6 gear box when swaping to a KLZE? if so, is it a straight swap? do the ratios improve performance? does it help reduce wheel spin under acceleration? if its not better to use a mx6 gear box, why?...I have looked around a fair for answers and it seems theres many different views about the topic.Ive been told they fit just fine.Then ive been told they dont fit right etc. but that cant be right can it? or is it they just wont fit in an mx3?

Nobody uses an auto tranny for a klze. So your first solution is to put in a manual tranny. An Mx6 will fit. Which one to choose, Mx6 or Mx3. Only performance difference is the rpms. Mx6 is lower, so you'll be able to go a little faster. But with the Mx3 tranny you will start off faster, cause of the higher rpms. So, all you need to know is if you want to start off faster, or end faster.
