Overdrive

I bought a used Borg-Warner T5 5-speed transmission off eBay to replace the original gearbox. I will also need to change the rear gearing to get my ratios where I want. The T5 is a great match for this truck. It was originally on a mid-80s S-10, so the bolt pattern was the same as my 261. I had to find a new clutch disc with the right number of splines, but I used the original clutch fork and throwout bearing. I also had to get a new driveshaft made with the correct slip yoke and length.
