4cyl T-5 behind a 5.0 V8
I didn't do this.
But ever since I purchased my car I've had a vibration around 1500-2000 rpms standing still and also around 60mph it gets real bad. I can feel it at my feet but it seems the direct source is coming from the transmission. So I got under and checked mounts and driveshaft blah blah. Come to find out I have a 4 banger T-5. Now to my understanding it's okay to use these, BUT the input shaft diameter is a smaller diameter than the V8's, there you would need the correct pilot bearing? Either The pilot bearing in there is for a V8 or there is none at all.
What are some of your guys opinions on this? I don't plan on making my car anything above stock to be honest. But I absolutely hate such short gearing it has.
