T-5 and a 350

Were there any years that had a 350 with a manual trans from the factory? How about special order?

for thirdgens I don't think so. The thirdgen t5 couldnt handle the power of the 350. As far as I know.

This question has been asked about 500,000 times and the correct answer is always, is, and always will be no. Not in a thirdgen!!! Even though I know there is an ad in the classifieds right now that the guy says that he has one and they are getting hard to find, WELL of course their hard to find They Don't Exsist So that would make them hard to find and very rare.

OK done venting now, I just hate people that insist they have an orginal one and then can't produce a build sheet or RPO codes.

Later, Garrett
