chobracobra said:i really want to avoid "used" trannys. i'm doing a Aod swap and i want to get a new tranny or know the exact history of the tranny such as this one...rebuilt. i cant just buy a used one not knowing how the previous owner went on it..and i know how we drive..plus the stock t-5's aren't exactly the strongest.
As long as it was built right then ya it should be as good as a new one. Although is says later in the questions sections that the gears are used but checked to make sure they meet spec so Its a bit confusing. My point was that you can get the close ratio T5 brand new for about the same price and its a stronger trans with a more usable 1st gear. Just throwin that out for informational purposes. I too did alot of shopping around and researching and thats where I decided my money was best spent.chobracobra said:what do you think about the claims of having "Hp series Hardend gears race syncros G force retainer"? and isnt a rebuilt tranny with new internals just as good as a new one?
1st gear in a T5 with 3.73's gets pretty short. The 2.95 1st gear makes it more useable.chobracobra said:yea true, i missed that initially...orginal mainshaft...i saw orginal case. is a 2.95 first gear way to long or something? i do have 3:73's in the rear
chobracobra said:This thread is changing direction a little here but...if i have a 3.35 first gear with 3:73's in the rear, what will that be like? short and quick as hell? is that really such a bad thing?
