I am in the same spot as you with my '52 3600.
I picked up a T5 a few weeks back, but I'm
concerned about decreasing the load capacity.
I couldn't pass up the tranny though...my local u-pullit had them on sale for $39.99 and there
were a few S10's with 5 speeds to choose from at that! Would be interested in how it works out for you though. Please keep us posted.
