Re: T-5 tools?
Try HanlonMotorsports.com they have a T5 repair video and it shows all tools and how to do. I think it is around $16.00. I got it and it helped.

Re: T-5 tools?
If you're making ANY kind of power, stock up on 3rd gear synchro's. Just the way it is bro........
Might be time to kick the tranny up a notch or two.

Re: T-5 tools?
I'd prefer to invest my time and money in a dd performance T-56. Im not in a position to purchase one. Maybe in a few months. Then atleast the t-5 would be worth selling to help offset some cost. 3700 is where i need to get too.

Re: T-5 tools?
With the kind of power your motor is making, I wouldn't do anything to that t5 unless you are going to get it pro-shifted. Even the world class t5 ain't gonna hold that kind of torque. Until then, stock up on 2 and 3 synchros.
