tramsmission question
maybe a dumb question but what is the difference between the v6 and v8 t-5 tranny....what do these number mean? will one pull harder then the other?
1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th R Mustang 3.8L 3.35 1.93 1.29 1.00 0.73 3.15 Mustang 5.0L 3.35 1.99 1.33 1.00 0.68 3.15 |
gears
the numbers arethe size gears3.8 revs high than 5.o .
|
Both first gears are pretty low so the only difference you will really notice is with the v6 tranny you will be revving higher in fifth.
|
so it wouldn't be worth getting a v8 T-5 then

if you have to adventually rebuild your tranny you might want to change some gears then, but those gears dont look to much different :bluecool: |
I believe the T5 has a higher torque rating, could be wrong though. :)
|
the v8 T-5 does have a higher tourqe rating...i just thought that the v8 T-5 might pull harder through the gears!
|
The gearing is very close, the benefit of the higher torque rating is debatable, I know guys who've been running 4cyl. T5s for years with no problems. I'd stick with yours for now, you can always change the gearing come rebuild time.
