Sorry to hear you went there for nuthin. The early t-5's rated at 265 ft lb, 90-93 was 300 and the 93 Cobra t-5 310. The W.C. Z T-5 is rated at 450 hp and the G-Force is rated at 600 hp.

a C-6 is unecessary when a C-4 or AOD will hold way more power than what i will have. plus i wanna see somebody find a C-6 with a small block bellhousing on it.......good luck.

351 Cleveland C-6 = small block bellhousing. But you are right, a C4 or AOD is a much better choice. Nobody runs C6s anymore. All the fast BBF guys run TH400s and Powerglides.

exactly.....the C-6 is just unecessary.....and it is harder to find a C-6 with a small block bell than a C-4.....plus i will be driving it on the street so im thinkin about going with an AOD just for the overdrive with my 4.56 rear ratio

If you get a good built AOD, it will be a good trans for a street/strip car. There are guys running fast with them but you have to find the right guy that knows how to build them or buy one from a good aftermarket company.
