t5 identification? PLEASE HELP
Ok I have this t5 is has the letter I above the drain/fill hole and has the letters DKM on the top of it. What year could it possibly be? It has the electric speedo connection. I counted 26 splines on the tailshaft. The guy I bought it from said it was a 1992 Trans am. There is a metal id tag on it. I am just trying to figure out if it is a WC or not. It says use dexron fluid only too. Thanks for any help. I hope I didnt get screwed over.

If its got the electric speedo connection then its a world class trans. The only other thing it could be is from an 87 firebird, which would be non-world class. Look at the input shaft on the front of it. There should be a circle to the bottom left. The perimeter of the circle should say the word TIMKIN on it. Then you know for sure its a world class T5.
