I have bought a T-5 and plan to install it in my Chevelle, a friend used it for roadracing (the 14spline s-10 one)a finally managed to blow it up behind a 434cid.
If you are getting just the trans be sure to get the world class one (I think its after 1989) which is better. If you have money get a g-force t-5, a tremec, D&D t-56 or a Richmond and be sure that it will not blow up.

If you have a mild sbc, and will not bang on it, the transmission will probably last just fine for you (assuming it's not already hurt). The T-5s are only rated for 6cyl applications now, and GM didn't put them behind 350s, only the 305 (read as 'weak'). If you're going to have anything other than a very mild 350 or less, or you want to bang on it some, then I'd recommend you find a stronger transmission now rather than later. good luck, Zieg72 wrote: > What is anyone have to say about a 5 speed trans in 84 Camaro's.
