I fell for that light car and light traction line too and I found out that thrid gear is pretty week. I was laying into the throttle and not powershifting when third gear went "KAPOW!" about 1 second after I had let out the clutch. Torque will kill a t-5 and you have a bunch of torque.
If you were running a stock 5.O the T5Z is a great tranny but if you plan to mash that torque monster of yours just save you pennies and time for when you have to replace it.
