your thinking of a T5 which won’t do what you want. They are very weak and will not last behind a 350 thats why they were only available behind a 305. You need a T56 or something stronger. Is this going to be a hotrod or offroad project? NV4500 might suit your needs ---

That’s pretty much it right there. If you are looking to save money, this is the wrong place to look. Go automatic if you want other, potentially cheaper options. ---

The longtail won’t require a new trans crossmember as its the same lenght as a 700r and a 4l60 or a t5 . ---

for a stock v8 a Camaro t5 should be ok. I had a t5 behind the 347 in my Mustang and it held up fine and its the same tranny. I did manage to fuck one up in a stock S10 with a 2.8 though. They dont like powershifting and being used like a 1 ton truck. ---

If I remember correctly the ford had tapered bearings where the GM did not. Two reasons GM did not put T5s in 350 cars. One, previously stated, 340tq + 3500# + 3.23 gear is bad. Just ad a clutch dump and boom! Second was emissions regulations. This is why newer T56 has the skip shift solenoid. In a light S10 and a mild 350 the T5 will probably be fine especially if youre not LSD or tall geared. ---

It’s all in the torque output not the hp numbers. That and ford used world class transmissions from the get go and GM didn’t until 89 or 90 I believe. I also have a complete T56 swap to sell 1600 miles on a rebuilt trans and spec 6 puck clutch. PM if interested. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/wtb-gm-5spd-trans/261772.md?page=2)
