ALOT OF BROKEN T-5's...Time for Tremec group purchase??

LOCASH · 07-10-2001, 11:30 AM

I see alot of broken T-5's here and I could use one myself. Can anyone put together a group purchase on T-5Z's or Tremecs?

How about a Lentech AOD group purchase? That'd really cure the problem!

Forget the T5s and Tremecs already!! Go with a built AOD or C4.

Depends how much the price would come down, keep me posted. Oh yeah, I'd rather rebuild my T5 once a month than switch to an auto!

Sorry, I don't know how to put one together. Some one who is stateside would have to do it. I just thought I would throw the idea out and hope that someone who knew what to do would bite. How does it work? Do I just call around and ask about buying a bunch of trannies and ask what kind of price I could get? Any recommendations on who I should call?

The only reason I didn't go to a Tremec the last time around was $$$$ to convert. I would have to get another SFI approved bellhousing to fit the Tremec, SFI approved Clutch to fit the Tremec, and a new Shifter. I think a lot of guys think it is as simple as just swapping trannies but it's not and when you have invested all the money in the saftey equipment needed for the T-5, and can rebuild them your self..it is cheaper to stay T-5, until you go to a Lentech like Jeff!

Persoanlly I'll stay with the T-5 for now, but if it keeps failing especially after the Turbo is installed

then I will look at another set-up, most likely a Tremec race prepped by Hanlon, his lasts all season with out a tear down, that is awesome!
