Back to the OP, the old transmissions were best IMO because of the strength and ratios. The BW T10 and Muncie M22 are examples.
First gear starting at 2.2:1, more common 2.5:1
The best T5 is almost 3.0:1 and is weaker.
I've got the adapter now from Two Trout and the 4speed and the bellhousing, so I have little interest.
How are the pans coming along?
