Looking for a WC T5 Transmission.
Hey, Im looking for a WC t5 transmission/bellhousing in Canada (shipping on a used transmission from the US quickly overwhelms the value of the tranny itself). I need something to fill the void in my engine bay while i save my pennies for a TKO600.

Re: Looking for a WC T5 Transmission.
If you don't find a WC i have 2 non WC, the only thing i don't have is the bell housing. 1 is the V8 model, and the other is a V6 model. Im not sure if they put WC behind the 6's, but the sixer was an 88, i think that was around the time the world classes started showing up. Im just 30 min from you.

Re: Looking for a WC T5 Transmission.
I have a non WC T-5 V6 model, 2.8L bellhousing, if you don't find a WC T5.
What are these things normally worth $150-$200?

Re: Looking for a WC T5 Transmission.
Thanks for the offers, i have a month to locate a V8 WC unit, after that i'll definately consider a NON WC version.

I think technically the boxes behind v6s in 88 were WC in that they have roller bearings and a tapered input shaft bearing. However the internals are not identical to V8 WC units (they dont have to be as strong).

Re: Looking for a WC T5 Transmission.
I have a WC T5 in my 89 TA which I will be pulling next month. I have owned it since new and it has only been behind the stock 5.0 TPI.
It is in excellent condition, with about 130K kms on her. Let me know if you are interested.
