Default Transmission Bearing Noise

I have a 91 Gt and put a 8psi supercharger about 4 months ago. I just started to hear the bearings in the tranny getting louder and louder. I checked into getting a tremec but I just wanted to know if I could just up-grade the gears and bearing in my T-5 and make it work somehow. Please help thanks guys

If i did the up-grade should it hold up? And what about the T-56 ,and also how long to you think my tranny will hold up?

I'm selling a good used set of gears for a T5 on ebay. I have the bearings that came out of that transmission that are in perfect shape I'll throw in for the buy it now price. Take a look, the item number is 120039888450.

t-56 would be cool.... but do you have the $3700 itll cost to make the swap... i know i dont.... especially not for a tranny that only holds 440tq...

i'd rather go with an MMR750, which will bolt up to my 351w that'll be getting swapped in this winter

Yes the throw out bearing has always made noise but this noise is like a tin can full of nuts.
