Re: W Stock..
[QUOTE=impstocker;580762]
So, now some questions
1. Would I be able to replace and use the T5 over a 4 speed that came in earlier GM cars like a Sunbird, Monza ect.?
2. Would a T5 be able to withstand the abuse, I figure low HP and sort of low weight between 2900-3000 lb.
My other choices would be 85 or 86 Camaro, Firebird which came with L4 or S10
Throttle body over 2 barrel. ?
1. I don't think that you can put a 5 speed in a 4 speed combo. Better ask Yak.
2. See above.
85-86 Camaro/Firebird would have been 5 speed combos as would S-10.
I'm old, I'd go for the 2V but where are you going to find a body? Mid 80s Camaros/Firebirds and S-10s are still around and not THAT expensive. With todays rules, I like the 1962-64 Chevy II but find one!
Something to remember when you're looking at W/S, a 5 HP difference in an A/S combo is 40 lbs. and maybe 3-4 hundredths tops. A 5 HP difference in a W/S combo is 120 lbs. and probably 2-2.5 TENTHS!!!!
