Mattstang65....
I have a T-5 from an '87-'88 4 cylinder LX behind my 408W stroker and though I don't abuse it, it does OK!!
I've talked to many a "trans man" and they all say that missing 3rd while "speed shifting" is the major cause of T-5 failure.....behind any motor!! One guy here in town says he drag raced a Chrysler Hemi in the '60's with a T-5 behind and never had a problem??!!
I have emailed Bruce Courture at Modern DriveLine to see what he says about it. He sells them all and though the Tremecs are stronger, according to Bruce, they are noisey and don't shift as well as T-5's. I'll let you know what he says.
