Depends on what you want to do, if your talking standard, The tremec TKO comes to mind, those can be had for under 2G's.

I swear chuck, I will listen to you. I know that you will have the best answer, seriously. I was seriously contemplating the G-force t-5 by pro- motion. The tranny has all redesigned gears that are wider and stronger than stock, yet they are still helical cut. They do sell a straight cut version, but it is said to be a whiny little box until it is in 5th, which is the only helical cut gear in it. They rate it to stand up to 650lb. ft. of torque. Let me know what you think, man. Thanks.

The reason is because someday in the next 3 years it will have a big twin turbo setup that will eat them. Shit, my 306 with the 2.02 heads, gears, a cam,and the right intake setup eats t5s like their cake in a fat kids plate. I need a strong- ass tranny

Stock 302's running on 2 cylinders shred t5's.

t-5's are all junk, the cases are not strong enough.

gv will make you an adaptor for anything. the two together should end up around 5k. i think the jerico's use a t-10 design tail housing anyways?? not sure but maybe.

Sounds about right, if I remember right they're based off a T-10 design. Guess Chucky would be the one to ask there.... How about it Chuck? :eh:

[Paulie C.]

jerico in a mustang huh? that would be pretty cool lol

A Jericho is just a Ford Top-Loader with striaght cut gears. When they first came out in the early 90s they were cast with Ford Motorsports on the cases.
