just make sure you get a t5 with a 60 degree V6 bell housing. The v6's and V8's have different bolt patterns.

probably if its WC T5 w/ a stock aneamic 350 and you dont beat on it. I saw alot of talk over the company in the other thread that says they can make a T5 take 500 ft-lbs of torque with their straight cut gear kit but theyre still a bit enigmatic about how much the standard helical cut gears w/ syncros can take. If you plan to do any modding, shoot for the tremmic 3550 tko or the T56.
