T5 tranny

Wondering who is running a T5 tranny and how they like it? Will it handle 350 plus horse? And how easy to bolt it up to a 327? I can score an s10 T5 and will be trading my 283 plus th350 for a freshly rebuilt 327. I am still leaning towards a 700r4 but for the price am considering the T5. Just dont want to be wasting my money.

Re: T5 tranny

I was thinking of a T-5 swap also, they are big with the 47-53 AD trucks.......As for 350hp plus they will last a little while, If you dont beat on them. They are not as strong as a muncie. Try to get the one from the 4*4 they are a little stronger. My 2cents.......Chris
