I got a 350 ho and a 5 speed tranny(how can i tell if its a t5 or not, what do i look for) and i want to swap it for a auto. What should i do turbo 350 or turbo 400. The easyest, cheapest, best performing tranny(i noe thats alot to ask for).

 

The T5 was the only 5 speed available.

 

thats good news, thanks

 

The TH350 is the easiest, cheapest swap but not the best performing tranny. It just depends on what kind of performance you're looking for.

 

So what tranny should i be looking for. I dont want to really spend much. Some guys are telling me to just keep the t5 but it might be a pain in the nyc streets. The most horse i might have on the car(and this is a long shot) is 380 but regardless anything im playin with 400lbs of torque and up. What would u guys do.

 

a turbo 350 will handle that easily if built right and are easily found. you will need the b&m kit for the ta mount. iirc if you use a long tailshaft the driveshaft will fit.

 

how much im i lookin at with the 350 turbo and b&m shift kit. Will it just fit right in the place of the t5 or do i need to get additional parts?

 

You'll need a console plate, shifter, shift cable, flexplate, torque converter, kickdown cable, and a few other things here and there.
