Not Ranked
Temec or T5
Ok fellas...Here are the variables:
I have a jag diff 3.31 (powerlok)
I am building a 392 stroker (say 450HP)
Rear wheels are 15" and tyres are 295/50/15
I have a SVO 7003A T5 (2.95, 1.94, 1.34, 1.00, .63) brand new which I was going to put behind a 302W.
Here's the question:
Money aside, do I invest in the g-force T5 kit or do I purchase a new Tremec and offload the 7003A T5?.
Which box would give the better usable ratio's?.
If the g-force is selected, whats the best 5th ratio?
For our american friends, the speed limit in Oz is 100KPH....ie 60MPH
I notice from searches that many with tremecs either run out of first or dont have a useable 5th gear unless going like hell.
BUT...many folks have the Tremec and I'm eager to find out why this is so as opposed to using the G-force?..am I missing something?
I am also considering changing the rear end ratio to say a 3.5X.
Pro's and Cons?
advice?
