I have a type 1 swinger box built by Shimo that I may sell if you decide to go that way.

It has Albins gears, with close 3rd and 4th, alloy spool, HD side covers, Ryno case, 3.88 R&P has about 20 1/8 mile passes on it. $2500.

depends on how much power you chase and how much you want to spend on a box.
it's all realative to your budget.

I guess it comes down to how hard you drive and what you really want to achieve. I prefer overkill to underkill....
