dunno but I got 245/50s on the back of my fox with a T-5 and my bud missed 3rd and hit 5th at 6500 and blew 5th to pieces and that was about 30 minutes after we got the car on the road for the first time. Other guy I know that does the foxes had his 302 blown with about 8lbsout of a vortec chargerwith a T-5 behind it and he bent his main shaft on a hard launch. I have little faith in a stock t-5 if your hooking up with anything over 350 horses at the pavement. Which means the trans is seeing 400+ horses, they just aren't built for it. I would take it easy on the trans if ya want it to last

power = stress on parts. ya keep stock parts in thecar that aren't made for power and ya beat on em your gonna break something, quickly. Z-spec T-5 rated isfor 350hp 330tq, a windsor with H/C/I shoud be putting that to the trans,add 150 shot and your giving that trans500ish horses at the imput shaft. Nailing gears with that power is iffyon stock parts.I don't know what my 408 is putting out yet but like I said,my engine buildermissed a gear at 6500 andmine made pieces the first time. like S351R13 said if it hooks the trans will break.
