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

Rick 91GT · 07-11-2001, 12:30 PM

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!
