Where is the cheapest place to buy a newT5 at, my car is all stock so i don't need any thing heavy duty. I know 5.0 Resto has one called a heavy duty for 1100.00 or so is there any thing cheaper out there.
I was told by D&D performance that our T5(3.35 1st gear) isn't made anymore. The ones you are seeing is for the fox body's with a 2.95 1st gear. I think you could use one of those but you'll have to swap bell housings as well. for that money go up another rung on the ladder and get a TKO 500,IMO

Swap bell housings for what??? The ratio for the first gear nothing to do with the bell housing. If you want to put a Superduty T-5 into your Stang, it's direct replacement. Summit and Jegs both sell them and I think the price tag on those was like $1300. Check current pricing to what they've got it at.
These guys are the best. You can get a tremec t5, which is the equil. of a t5z for prob around the same price and it is a better tranny. Sometimes they even have sales on them and throw them out the door for a grand.
I run a 91 4 banger 5-speed. (bought the whole car cheaper than you can one new T-5)...Works fine for me as a daily driver....I'm sure I could grenade it if I tried but whats the point. She sounds great and gets me back and to from work.

dont' waste your time on any t5, unless you pay $600 or less for a rebuilt, and $600 being a high figure. the difference between a t5z and a tremec is only a few hundred dollers, yet will be a night and day difference.
