a brand new one? Thats gonna cost yea probably as much as a Tremec, you should beef the tranny up if your gonna add more power later. 3550

 

[mytight95]

agreed......unless you upgrade at least a little you are gonna keep tearing 'em up if you drive very hard at all........

If you have to go back used because of monitary allowances, i cold understand but i wouldn't buy new unless you bought a tremec or g-force or something....

Rebuild kit from Hanlon might be an option if you want to stay with the T-5.

i dread the day i hear that noise.. That sucks....I baby mine for sure...chit my old TA i used to bang gears all day long and never a prob....these T5 s are weak...
Were you hammering on it when it launched...

I figure if mine breaks i would look to the G Force rebuild kit to beef the mofo up..thats 900.00 bones tho...

 

[mytight95]

Andy, i have looked at that kit......900 for the kit...... and it looks to be a pain to install.....there enplay tolerances are different than a normal one etc.....but i seen the gearset installed in a cutaway at the fun ford show.......with the gears in that thing it ought to hold some serious power.
