Everything I have read is about the early 50's range So before I buy a trans that will not work
I have found several items on the t-5 swap but none are a 62 which I am to understand are not like the 63 sooooooooooo
Here is the question.
62 C10 SWD long box rear gear 3.73 warmed over 350.
Looking for a parts list for a t-5 that will handle the 350 ( 250-300 hp range)
I have read that the S10 is the best but not able to handle the 5.7 and that the Camaro/ trans am is better but I need a tail shaft from a S-10???
I am looking for a shopping list of items to do this as everything I read seems to be unclear on this and that. Year of trans , ( speedo) tail shaft needed, cross member, trans mount, clutch plate needed cover plate for clutch, what T/O bearing, which fork, can I use the HYD clutch??
Thanks in advance Again sorry if this was covered but I could not find a 62 long bed thanks
Can some one help me.
P.S. have a 4 speed box for sale cheap!! ( once I get new trans in LOL | | |

There is a long thread on the T-5 trans right now in th HiPo forum. Have you seen that? Go over there and check that out. There are some good links to others sites with T-5 info. You can also do a search of these forums for anything T-5. There is a tech tip on this site and a good one on the inliners.org site. Good luck!

There is ungodly amount of info on this. I just did one on my 55-2 with a 85 s-10 trans. & 350 engine. It works beautiful. I think it will stand up unless a guy abuses it. I don,t intend to do burnouts.

So let me get this straight S-10 tranny before 1988, clutch Is a wait and see thing , and I need the front yoke and then just have them mated and re balanced. That is what I have gathered.
Being that I build harleys for a living I like to have a specfic parts list. Part numbers are the best. As well it seems that I cannot find one done for a 62. If there is no change then great I am off to the salavage yard. | | |
