    Let me know how it goes with that 350 and your 75-80 MPH rpm. I wanted to do that but remember on my old first 1990 that i put a 350 with a 2000 stall and the rpm's were crazy high at 75 mph

    from what i understand, the T5 should use some of the same stuff a T56 would, so i'd say just get a 4.8 flywheel & try it. for my 5.3/nv3500 i just used a stronger 4.8 clutch/PP as well. it was the same stuff the 5.3 manuals used in 99. everything bolted up fine. i'd imagine your T5 should work the same
