I have a two part question. I have a 59 1/2 ton with a 235. I would like to put in a T5, but have been given conflicting info as to whether I can keep the original clutch or have to convert to a hydraulic clutch. Any experiences? The second question is what gear ratio works best for the stock rear end and where can I find the gears? My current rear end has a replacement 3rd member from a donor and is very low geared. 55 mph has it wound out. Also saw Tremec at a show and they suggested going with a T6. Anyone tried this?


Looking to keep Grandpa's 59 Chevy truck running till the next generation takes over.
