Dusty:

You might want to look into the new Tremec TKO 500 or 600 5-Speeds. They come in both Ford and Chevy and handle 500 ft/lb or 600 ft/lb and also have 8 different shifter locations. The Ford TKO's are about $70 less than the Chevy TKO's

Go to this site to see more details on the Tremec TKO's:

Call or e-mail if you have questions of the Ford TKO's.

If you don't want new then don't buy a T-5 prior to 1985 to be safe. Better yet find a 95 or newer GT or Cobra trans from a bone yard.

Yr models of 1983 and earlier T-5 are considered the weakest of all the T-5 transmissions.
