Tremec Swap

The T5 is a Borg Warner trans that Ford used for many years. From what I`ve read and heard, the T5 won`t hold up to a lot of HP and speed shifting. I`ve heard good things about the Richmond trans but they`re more of a racing trans and much harder to find. If you go with a Tremec, pick at least the TKO-500, it should hold up to your smallblock.

Borg Warner=Tremec. If you look at the early T-5 it says Borg Warner if you look at some of the later ones(late 90's) they say tremec on them. The T-5 is more of a cruiser trans you need something beefier then that for a high hp car.
