After having seen your car run, I don't think a T-5 will live for long in it no matter what you do. My best guess as to what is wrong is the same as above, either the forks or blocker. I'm with Dave. Put a C4 in there. You will pick up a bunch with the proper stall.

Broken shift fork. It sheared the whole inside of it. I picked some rather large peices of metal out of the tranny. Pretty bad to say the least.

I had alot of help from a few of my friends out at real speed. Always nice to have people willing to stop doing things to their personal cars to lend a hand.

So good call mars_302

Thanks for the offers on the shift fork. I got one out of a trashed tranny and mine is mostly back together just needs a bit of rtv and it should be done.
