i would run both trans together. years ago(at least 30), someone had an S10 (or Toyota) truck with 2 manuals hooked together. gave him lots of gears(used as a hotshot) and he said it was good on gas. he would leave looked funny to me at the time, second trans shifter was almost in the back seat area and he would leave it in the higher gear until he needed to either pull or lower rpm. real foggy mixed with the cobwebs in the brain bucket but i can still picture it.
