Has anyone ran a smallblock ford and a T-5 setup?
« on: Feb 15, 2007, 07:52:20 PM »
Im looking for some help on my swap. I have a 289 Ford with the toyota 5 speed w-56. I want to put in a t-5. Has anyone done this before. I have questions about the slave cyl to use and clutch master.

only in a mustang. I did that conversion to a 66gt that worked really well. Did the slave conversion as well. I would only do the t5 if it were a world class though. The others are quite weak.

The world class T5 is fairly weak too imo.
If your dead set on a T5 I'd buy an aftermarket one.

Does anyone know how strong the rebuilt HD W-56's sold here are? Is there any torque rating?
