What can you do to make a T-5 stronger and where can you find these parts?

There aren't any parts that are any sort of substantial improvement over the stock stuff. You'll rip up a rebuild just as fast as the original. Look harder for a T56. They're all over the classifieds, ebay, and all of the 4th gen salvage yards.

Get the Counter gear stabilizer from Mediatronics Corp., 1717 Avenida Del Sol, Boca Raton FL 33432. They beefed up the T5's they were running them in the Jaguars they raced. Their web site is: www.gearzone.net or call 1-561-447-9594 fax 1-561-995-9234. This part only works on the WC-T5's. They also show the differences between the non-WC and World Class units on their site. Good luck, Lon.
