No, its for my cousins 68 stang. Swapping a T-5 in place of the C4.

I think were gonna go with the Z spec, its only $200 more.

Hey Sky, look at the gear spec's before you buy. I bought my "z" T-5 before I really looked at it and then heard that the gear ratios are differen't than the base T-5. I don't remember exactly what the problem was but I know, if I remember correctly, that Mr. 5 0 ended up deciding against going with it for that reason. Something about the first gear ratio being too tall I think. Looking back I would have gone with the upgrade to the Cobra Tremec or the TKO instead. There was about a $400 difference and I paid $1100 for my "Z" T-5 2 years ago. Just my .02

Hey Sky,

I have an NEW T-5(take-off from Saleen) sitting in my garage. It could be yours today if you want to drive to the Pasadena area. It's a '90 vintage, so it has good torque specs.

I paid $863 with tax, but will accept $700 since it's sitting in my garage. And like I said, it's NEW. I'm selling it because I was planning on using it for my '65, but I went with a Toploader instead.

Let me know

Russ

Actually the "Z" spec can be ordered with different 1st gear ratios.

The standard older 1st gear ratio is 3.35:1. The "Z" spec in D&D's ads for $1000 has a 2.95:1 ratio. It does make first gear taller, but with a 3.35:1 a Z spec is rated at 305 lb/ft instead of the 330. It does make a difference out of the hole, but I would think Mr 5.0 would have wanted it that way for a more usable 1st gear with his 3.55's. I'd like the Z much more than the standard tranny if I had 3.73's or higher.

Anyway, I had my Z spec shipped to my door from D&D performance in 2 days for $1100. Install went great, it shifts awesome, and I've got no complaints over the 10,000 miles I've had it.
