i had a t-5 in my cj7(with 258 6 cyl.)...worked fine untill i swapped in an LT1 ...dont know what kinda motor you got....but definetly wouldnt reccomend that tranny with 300+ horsepower....i swapped it for a nv4500 trans..with a "granny gear"(ultra-low first gear)...i think that there are 4500's without it...and if there is..im thinking about swapping my muncie for one(in my 68 rs/ss)...as close to bulletproof as you can get with a 5 speed overdrive...but they are also very heavy units(options in 3/4-1 1/2 ton gm trucks)...but shift very smoothly....with the right shifter..short throws also
