The T-5's are alright I guess, assuming you dont powershift the living snot out of it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I read a while back that the T-5 came maxxed out from the factory. Meaning that it wasnt even designed to handle the ammount of torque that the Fox's made stock. I had mine rebuilt about 4,000 miles ago. Its hanging in pretty well, but before that I had alot of synchro trouble in second and third. But anyhow, I would definitly buy it for that price. I dont think i'll be having mine rebuilt again, I'll probably end up getting a 3550, or a built C-6. I'm torn between

When you say power shifting do you mean quick shifting at high rpm levels or do you mean the art of clutchless shifting?
