Are there any 5-spds that can handle 350s?
I went and looked at a 91 RS yesterday. It had 120k on body and 7k on a new 350. The car was a 5spd. The clutch didn't seem to healthy on it so you think its the stock 5spd or what? or do they make 5spd trannies that can handle a 350?

Depends on how much torque that 350 has and how much you intend to abuse the 5 speed

tremec makes t5's that will handle even healthy 350s. the stock one won't live up to heavily "spirited" driving.
