question for you guys:
soon will have a mild 306 in the stang . hoping to get around 300rwhp out of it. the stock T5 has about 104k on it and to my knowledge, has never been rebuilt. it shifts smooth and rarely ever grinds but it does "whine" tho. ive serviced it several times (tried different fluids, etc). when i saved the fluid from the first change, it had very very little particles.
i can buy a 3550 tremec from a friend of mine with the bellhousing and the shifter with about 2000 miles on it for $1300.
my question is- how long would the stock T5 last on a mild 306? im not one to "rawhide" my car but when i do get in it, i dont want things to break. should i go with the tremec?
thanks
