Today while doing some full throttle shifts, it came to me. My t-5 is not long to this earth....its in the cards that it will soon detonate.... Its doing its job whell still, but i know.

I was just wondering if anyone has actually done a g-force kit themselves?

I rebuilt my t-5 a while ago and it was quite easy, just wondering if i would need any special tools, etc.

WHile i have you here, i would like to know if the 95/95 g-force or astro kit is available yet, i would enjoy keeping the stock bellhousing.
 
i rebuilt my t-5 a few months ago. i wanted to do a g-force or astro but the parts were not out yet. i wouldn't think it would be any different than a stock rebuild, only with diffrerent parts. the case is the same as is the bellhousing, i think the only thing a g-force kit requires is a 26 spline clutch disc since the upgraded input shaft is 26 spline. i've put a 94-95 tranny into a fox and vice versa only thing i did was swap the input shafts because our cars have a longer one. i dont know why the kit would be different except for that. 94-95 5.0 trans already have an alloy gear set, they are stronger anyway. well, i'm going to hopefully do the swap by spring if the parts are available.
 
I am going with either a G-force/astro alloy gearset. From what I remember the big issue is that there is not a hardend input shaft for the 94-95's so you have to keep your stock input shaft (weak link). I didnt know they were making a longer one for the 94+ crowd...that would rock. Either way though the shorter input shaft with the fox bell does not seem to be that big of a deal.
 
no ernan didn't have the g-force, he just had a stock t-5, he thought about the g-force but got a better deal on a tko from what I understood...

Nice save on the misinformation

I purchased a super t - 5 from astro performance and it is specific 94/95 it also does have 26 spine input shaft.

is it installed yet? if so how do you like it so far?

im confused about the input shaft tho because i thought all gforces had a 26spline input shaft
 
yeah, i do expect to need a new clutch anyway, the kind cobra is starting to slip.

I plan on installing the new gearset, probably an astro one, but i was just wondering what is involved......if its different than an normal t-5 install.
