Manual Tansmission Torque Limitation
Manual Tansmission Torque Limitation
OK, I've been sifting through the threads here on this board, and I've found different answers to the questions of torque limitations of the t-5 and t-56. What are the limitations, as far as torque is concerned, for the t-5, and the t-56? Is there a difference between the t-56 behind a v6 and a v8?

The T5 is only good for around 310 lb-ft of torque.
Yea, the V6 will probably never see 6th.
