I now Have 2 t-5's to Choose From. I might do this install in 2 different cars.. possibly. Here are the Tag decodes: Sam's Powell's Old T-5: 1352-162 - From a 87-88 Ford 2.3 4 Cyl - 240 Ft/Lb Rating - Gear Ratios: 1st: 3.97, 2nd: 2.34, 3rd: 1.46, 4th: 1:1, 5th 0.79 The T5 found earlier in this post: (which I still have and may use if the ratio's are better suited for certain applications: 1352-260 - From a 99-2001 Ford Mustang with a 3.8L V-6 Gear Ratios: 1st: 3.35, 2nd: 1.99, 3rd: 1.33, 4th: 1:1, 5th 0.68 also a great Resource for t-5 Hunters here: http://mongosgarage.com/wp-content/uplo ... umbers.pdf Greg |

A 3.97 1st gear doesn't get you very far unless you're using 2.76 gears, but if you are using 2.76s you have 11:1 torque multiplication in 1st which is pretty good. What I like less about that gear set is how far apart the ratios are and the big RPM drop with each shift. The /6 A833 is 3.09, 1.92, 1.40, 1:1. That gear spacing is much closer to the V6 T5 of 3.35, 1.99, 1.33, 1:1, 5th 0.68. The T5 has lower 1st and 2nd which gets the car moving quicker, but then 3rd and 4th are closer which I like. The higher the RPM you want to run the closer the gears need to be. So with a mild cam and numerically low rear end the wide ratio trans would be right at home, but if you have a built engine I wouldn't even consider it. |
