    Default trans question

    I have a friend that is parting out a late model camaro with the 5spd in it. What chance would this thing have holding up to the weight of the 715 behind a stock 350 in front of a divorced 205 over a set of rocks?
    I was hoping to get the stuff together next year to rip the truck apart and do a complete rebuild with either a diesel or a big block, but I would like to get it running and driving a litle this year.

    I wouldn't do it. There are SM465's everywhere...

    Well after looking for 2 months for a cheap tranny to get the rig going, I fell onto a 465/208 combo a few blocks from the house for $65. Not really happy about a 208, but feel more comfortable with that over the T5 tranny.

    How much does your friend want for the T-5?
    Remember if you didn't build it you can't call it yours.

    6.2 powered M715, 5 M1009's, M416, 2 M101's, 2 M105's, 3 M35's, M1007 6.5 turbo Suburban project called Cowdog.

    1 case of coors light. I have added it to my collection for when the 350 comes out of the 715 next year for a diesel swap and when I find time to pull the '70 camaro out of the barn.
