Description

The TREMEC T5 solves the classic dilemma of adding modern overdrive drivability to a Chevy LS swap without eating up valuable tunnel space or adding unnecessary weight. At just 75 lbs dry, this is TREMEC's most compact transmission—perfect for tight engine bays where every inch counts. The 2.95:1 first gear delivers strong launch performance, while the deep 0.63:1 fifth gear overdrive drops cruising RPM, reduces engine temperatures, and improves fuel economy.

Don't let the compact dimensions fool you. This Super Duty T5 safely handles 330 lb-ft of torque and works well behind streetcars up to 450 hp on DOT-approved tires. Inside, tapered roller bearings on the main and counter shafts reduce noise and improve durability, while needle bearings under 1st through 4th gears reduce shift effort and improve high-speed performance. Carbon fiber synchro rings, a steel front bearing retainer, and Cobra-style pocket bearing round out the heavy-duty internals.

MDL's guided package selection walks you through every component needed for a complete LS-to-Ford T5 swap: bellhousing options (standard or high-performance), adapter plates, flywheels in multiple balance configurations, 10.5-inch clutch sets, hydraulic release systems including master cylinders and hydraulic release bearings, shifter configurations, speedometer solutions, and driveshaft yokes. Every part is selected for optimal compatibility with your Chevy LS engine.

Like all TREMEC aftermarket transmissions, the T5 is built from 100% brand-new OEM-quality components. MDL's concierge service is available to help you select the right combination for your project and budget—call us at any point if you have questions.
