I want to cruise on the freeway. Will these tranny's bolt right up? Should i just save my money and put a gear vendors on the tranny?

 

thanks in advance,

Tom

Depends on money, torque, and use of the trans. And whether you want manual or auto.

A gear vendors on the TH350 doesn't make sense to me. If I wanted an overdrive auto, I'd get a 700R4 or a 2004R.

 

The T-5 will work if you're nice to it (don't speed shift, etc.) and don't have tons of torque. But the T-56 has great shift quality and can take more torque and abuse. See this site's and Zdriver's tech articles for Mike Kelly's write up on the T56 install (not sure if they are different or if one is more up to date).

 

You can do the Tremec 5spd, but I only know of one person who did that, and he wished he'd just done the T-56 (that's me, by the way).
