Re: 5 speed
Brad, a board member, has a T-5 behind his 250 L6. Maybe he'll chime in

Re: 5 speed
I have a T5 behind a 292 and it's one of the best things I've done to the truck. Do a search here and over at www.inliners.com There are mountains of information between the two sites.

Re: 5 speed
Yes, both will work behind the L6. The Camaro T-5 will work better and is easier to get up and running and possibly cheaper too, however the Camaro shifter sits about 12" back from the S-10 shifter and requires bucket seats. You could swap the S-10 tailshaft over to the Camaro gear box to cure that, but again it all comes down to my statement above.
