Transmission & Suspension Questions
I was wondering how strong an SVO T-5z is compared to a Termec TKO, also do i need to change anything else (eg. bellhousing?) if i get a new tranny. could i use my old components? would it withstand an incon twinturbo ( the T-5z, I know the termec would hold up).
the other question i had was should i get ssm upper c-arms $80, & liftbars $155, or the Steeda "Max- Trax"$600(sport lowering springs, anti squat axel brackets, adj u&l c-arms) Kit, it will be daily driven. Rick 91GT, If You Read This, e-mail me that info on the Torque-box kit (not sure what it's called) to beallur@axion.net please Thanks ------------------ 1988 Mustang GT, T-5 No Smog Pump (Shorty Belt), Dumps At The End Of Stock H-Pipe (Sounds Mean), K&N Air Filter (Stock Air Box, Removed air silendcer), 198.9 rwhp @4200 (235 Motor!!), 285 lbs-ft @2900 (336 Motor!!!). |

The T-5z I think is rated at 330ft lbs of tq. I doubt it would last with twin turbos, hard enough on a lightly modded mustang

could i use eibach pro kit 1.5" lowering springs, or eibach sportline 1-3/4"- 2-1/4" lowering springs with the south sides?
would i be better off with eibach drag launch springs? would i be able to corner at speed with the drag launch's? ------------------ 1988 Mustang GT, T-5 No Smog Pump (Shorty Belt), Dumps At The End Of Stock H-Pipe (Sounds Mean), K&N Air Filter (Stock Air Box, Removed air silendcer), 198.9 rwhp @4200 (235 Motor!!), 285 lbs-ft @2900 (336 Motor!!!). |

BowTie Eater; On the transmission questions you might want to talk to D&D Performance in MI (248) 926 6220. These guys are experts on the T5, TKO & the T56.
