Well i was told the 4 cylinder tranny would last me a while, but they had only lasted about a month with my driving,i had two from the doner car i bout for my 5.0, and i am going to buy a "z" spec tranny this weekend and i was wondering what was all your opinions about that trans.

If you're blowing up trannies, granted the 4cyl T5 is weak, you should probably consider something else. The T5z is only rated at 330ft/lbs of torque.
