Okay i have an 88lx 5speed

i plan on doing a H/C/I swap

Ported GT-40 Irons
Crower 15511 cam
TF street heat Intake

Full Bolt ons

Mickey Thompson Sportsman Pros

Shot of nitrous

i know regular t-5s do not hold to well to sticky tires on a stock fox let alot one that is going to be pushing well over a hundred HP more then stock

so my question is

Astro Transmissions, how do they hold up? am i better off having them send me the Whole Tranny in exchange for my core?

or should i just buy the Gear set and have a shop change all the internals over... which ever is cheaper and simpler. and are there any other trannys out there that will hold up to my set up

i know a t-5 can hold up to it but only for so long, but im only 19 and i really can't afford to do things twice, i want to do it once and do it right

how much are you wanting to spend on the transmission?

Is the tranny you have now broke. If not i wouldnt replace it untill it doe's...then go with a TKO 600

i have felt the TKO 500 and if the 600 is anything like it... although i love the idea it just wouldn't be for me.

i will spend 1500-2000 for the tranny
