Transmission will be a Ford racing T5Z.
Features:
* Heavy-duty "World Class" T-5 5-speed manual transmission with short-throw shifter
*Aluminum case. Only 75lbs assembled.
*Gear ratios of 2.95, 1.94, 1.34, 1.00, 0.63.
* 330 ft./lbs. torque capacity
* Double-moly 2nd speed, 3rd speed and countershaft cluster gears
* Carbon-fiber 3-4 blocker rings
* Improved synchronizers and bearings
* 1-1/16 in. diameter 10-tooth input spline
* 28-tooth output spline
* 7-tooth speedometer drive gear
* Cobra-style pocket bearing
The only downside is the deep 0.63 overdrive combined with 3.73 axle gearing could leave my high strung engine sputtering at less than 2200 rpm if you shift into top gear before 70MPH. 4.10 gears would bump me just over 2400 RPM at 70MPH, a much happier cruise for my combination. The added acceleration is purely a coincidence.
