I would advise against a t-5 swap. It wont last long behind that 350. I would suggest t-56.

My car was a 14.9@94 with pulleys only but a heavy system and 17"rims when it was AOD still. My friends identical almost 93 GT AOD ran a 14.88@96 dead stock, and then a 14.66 with pulleys and cold air. Both our cars had the optional 3.27 gears though. With the base 2.73 gears they are dogs off the line. My 89 LX ran a 15.4@92 I think with the stock AOD and 2.73's. It was going 60mph in 1st gear it was geared so tall!!!

A Ford AOD has a 1st gear ratio of 2.40, quite a bit taller than a GM 700R4. So at about 5500 rpm with 26" tall tires iy would be doing 65 in 1st gear. It never even got into D in the 1/4. The guy I sold the car too put 4.10's and was running 14.56 with the car.
