I have a customer in Arizona with a T5. We need to know what ratios are it it. The #s on the drivers side of the case are Basic-1 13-51-065-903 Borg Warner. Can any of you guys tell me what the gear ratios are in this? It was originally in a CHP Camaro if that helps. Thanks, Trent
Tman, Have you checked with these guys? http://www.5speeds.com/t5/ I looked quckly but did not see it listed, You may be able to give them a call.
The numbers you need are on the plastic coated sticker on the top cover. It should be 1352-xxx. I have a pretty comprehensive list of these ratios put together, but I need that 1352 number. I could get close, with the year and engine designation, i.e. LB9, LG4, etc.
I tried that site. My customer is down by the border. Can you TEAR that plastic tag off to read it? He is trying to do this on a completed car without a tranny hatch.
not sure about the camare tranny, but there should also be a metal tag on one of the tailshaft housing bolts. that should also have the number on it. same first 4 digits as the casting number you gave. if its a chp tranny its probably junk, and he'd be better off swapping it for one of the S-10 t-5's i got here! tell him lower first gear!
Try this: http://garage-scene.home.att.net/t5_install_identifying.htm Here's some info: 84 Camaro V6 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 2.95 1.94 1.34 1.00 .73
Here's the best ballpark I can get you at this point: 1st - 3.35 or 2.95 2nd - 1.94 3rd - 1.34 or 1.29 4th - 1.00 5th - .63 or .73 Rev - 2.76 The biggest difference is going to be in first and fifth. I don't think the tag comes off, btw. Maybe he can get a look with a mirror? Maybe this will be close enough. Hope so. Brad
