none of the stock t5s are rated at 300hp except the 93 cobra spec t5 and yes they can hold 300 but not for long.a G FORCE rebuild is said to hold 600ft/lbs of torque and as much hp if not more. the t5 in the 5.0 circles is referred to as the temporary 5. it is the weakest link in the 5.0 drive train and a stock 5.0 doesn't make 300hp and they still don't always last. but for sure they are the best choice out there unless you like a c4 witch can hold a lot of power if built correctly and its supposed to be the cheapest to build, alota drag racers build them
but you would need a pinto bell housing. t5 is your cheapest best most reilable bet. u can get one from the junk yard and beat the crap out of it for a while before you have any problems, then decided if you wanna spend the money on a geforce rebuild which goes to straight cut gears. good luck
