The more and more I read these comments and read articles, it seems like spending a little extra to get a Tremec 500/600 would be the best choice. I'm on a budget for my build, but I'm not interested in parts that won't last me a long time, so where I need to invest money I will.
I'm still interested in the NV4500, especially since I have a chance of finding one on a truck in the salvage yard.
I have a friend with a World-Class T5 in his 65 mustang. The engine is rated to be 440 HP and he has a 150 shot of nitrous. He has 3.73 gearing in the rear and runs 13's in the 1/4 mile. He swears by the T5, but out of all these responses it doesn't come recommended. Does anyone have reasons why?
Lastly, I found some transmissions shops online that sell "new Muncies." They are not rebuilt, but completely new transmissions. I am assuming they have the rights to the design, but does anyone know if the quality is any good?
Thanks for all the advice Bolters.
