Guest Anonymous Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 Hello all i'm new to the site and I was wondering what type of transmission and gears would you use on a 5.0 engine.It would have the power adders like heads,cam,intake, etc. I dont have the car yet but I'm trying to get my homework done right. I'm looking into the 87-92 engines. Thanks Kenneth K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bobs302z Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 I used a t5 with stock 3.54 gears. I like the standard . If you get to cared away on the engine build the t5 wont stand up I think its good up to 300-350hp .I am running around 300hp and love it .

Guest Anonymous Posted February 13, 2003 Share Posted February 13, 2003 By chance would you know what your MPH would be at red line. As in top speed wise. I would like to hit no less then 130@6000RPM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bobs302z Posted February 14, 2003 Share Posted February 14, 2003 my speedo was a litte off but I think a red line with my set up @ 6000 close to 150mph I have provalby hit 140 and the car would have went more. If you go with much lower gears 1st will be useles . I love the set up I am using right now I top out in 4th at end of 1/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
