The T5 is available in many different variations. Various manufactures have used the T5 in their vehicles, but the ones we are most interested in were used by GM and have the standard GM bell housing bolt pattern. The best candidates for most Advance Design trucks are those used in the 1983 to 1987 Chevrolet S-10 pickups. These earlier models are readily available, have a manual speedometer cable connection, and can be bolted right up to your Chevy Inline Six with few modifications.
The V6 S10 transmissions seem to be the best option for most swaps. They are built a bit heavier than their 4-cylinder counterparts, and the 0.72 or 0.73 overdrive ratio is strongly preferred over 0.86 ratios found on most 4-cylinder applications.
