T5 options?
Hey everyone, My uncle has an '86 Firebird he wants to put a stock 350 in. It currently has a stock 305. The car has a T5 in it now. I read a bunch of forums and the T5 is weak, even for a 305. Is it worth taking the transmission somewhere and get it beefed up and if not, is there a direct replacement that is manual and has 5-6 speeds? The T56 swap is out of my skill and price range.
