Please help me ID a 5 spd trans...
I have a couple of options but any choice must fit a 351W block that will be strocked to 392.
Can anyone tell me if a 5 spd trans from a '96 Mustang, part number F6ZR-7003-CC (there are more ##s on the tag if it helps) is any better/stronger than a typical late '80s T5? Better ratios?
I realize a different bell housing will be needed (mod motor vrs pushrod) but don't want to creat a bellhousing that has less options (Tremec, etc) in the future.
This will be primarily driven on the street with track time being mostly twisty-swervy rather than the straight-line slinghot stuff.
Many thanks for any insight!!!!
