None at all. I think they are on a set of 8" wide wheels and have a 5.5 back spacing.

Yeah it's the same car, just before and after paint.

ive come to find that there are NO GOOD REVIEWS about a aod to T5 swap

there are plenty of "how to's"

but no "the difference between driving a AOD and T5"

as far as power, driveability, etc etc.

i plan on writing up something like that.

good to know! i was pretty worryed about it.

im unsure of the size of my current rim;s, they are weld draglite 15", but they could be 9-10" wide for all i know, and i havent checked the backspacing.

thanks for the pictures, your car looks really good, and the rears look much fatter then mine.

sweet man, the swaps easy as heck, but idk about the advantages ect. i bought my car auto, but tore that out as soon as it got off the trailer, lol so i didnt get a chance to drive it

dumb outdated auto ? lol

302army187

lol, sounds accurate!

i dident know ANYTHING about 5.0s when i bought mine.

i wanted a hardtop, but this thing had $8k+ in mod's and such and felt like it was a "deal"
i drove it back to back with a 99% stock vert GT with a 5speed, and my car felt MUCH MUCH faster.


if i knew this automatic was going to cause me issues, the top was going to loft up and let air in as low as 75mph, and the track rules with verts...... i prob would have walked, mods and all.

youll love 5speed. congrats on the purchase

the 5 speed will get you more hp at the wheels. And its more fun to drive! as for the tire/gear thing, ever seen a cobra with 4.10s? I doubt it will hurt you at the track. but you never know.
