- Actually, a stronger (heavier duty) version than found in the
- stock Mustang 302 (I usually say 5.0 but it really is a 302 - lets get real).
- Ford sells it as the Heavy Duty (oops - World Class?) T-5. It also
- has different gearing - an even taller 1st gear - and is rated at a
- slightly highe torque capability.
- I didn't know that had come out with a redesign of it though -
- anybody know what changes they made?
-
-
- BTW - I didn't know the S10 used the T-5 (learn something every
- day 8-)
