my other friend lee has a 1970 nova that he got and hes always trashin my mustang and sayin how his 383 is gonna walk all over my mustang, i just let him talk

im hoping to have a 302 with between 350 and 400 hp with a t-5 behind it and probably 4.11's in the rear end

The 383 probably will walk all over your 302, because 350-400 hp will break your t5 soon enough. 4.11s and t-5 equals no traction on the street, and slicks will break your t5.

Hey Daniel, would a World Class T-5 with a rebuild kit from Ford racing solve that weakness? http://www.speedyperformanceparts.co...ild-kit_z.html

I don't think so...you can only load so big and stout of gears in the little t5's box. That is what limits the trq and hp on trannys. It may last for a while and some may be lucky, you never know.
