Can anyone tell me if the t-10 tranny that came in the earlier third gens is stronger then say a t-5 r t-56. I was just wondering for my own curiosity. Thank you

 

Stronger than a T5? Yes. Stronger than a T56? Doubt it. The Super T-10 is an aluminum cased 4 speed that GM started using in the early 70s as a replacement for the M20, M21, and M22 Muncie 4 speeds. The Super T10 is a tough 4 speed, but it lacks overdrive, which is why GM eventually switched over to the T5 and then later the T56.

Liberty and other can build a Super T10 to live behind serious power. I know a guy who runs one in an early Nova that runs in the high 10s with no breakage problems.

 

ive got a full 4 speed conversion for sele if any one is lookin for one, its every thing you will need to put it in, and use hydrolic clutch too, only thing you need is the mount

 

how does the super t-10 clear the torque arm? Looks like the linkage and shifter will not clear the torque arm mount, at least if you run the heim joint linkages
