Description

Building a Ford street rod or custom project where every inch of tunnel space matters? The TREMEC T5 front shift configuration puts the shifter near the main case - critical for 1930-1960 street rods, trucks, and kit cars where traditional rear shift locations simply won't work. This fully customizable package lets you spec every component to match your specific build requirements, from transmission options through clutch systems, bellhousings, and driveline components.

The Super Duty T5z at the heart of this package delivers 330 ft-lb torque capacity with a 2.95:1 first gear for strong launches and a fuel-saving 0.63:1 overdrive that drops RPMs on the highway. At just 75 pounds dry, the T5 is TREMEC's most compact transmission - it installs in tight engine bays where TKX or Magnum transmissions can't fit. The long production history of the T5 speaks to its proven reliability, smooth shift quality, and light shift effort that make it a favorite among weekend cruisers and kit car enthusiasts.

MDL's guided package builder walks you through selecting the right combination of components: front or rear shift transmission variants, multiple Qwik Stik shifter designs with different lever positions, aluminum and steel bellhousing options, flywheel weights and materials, clutch configurations sized for your power level, hydraulic line assemblies, speedometer solutions (mechanical or electronic), and driveshaft yokes in 1310, 1330, or 1350 U-joint patterns. Every component is selected to work together as a complete, bolt-in drivetrain solution.

Designed specifically for Ford small block engines with 6-bolt crank flanges. Requires 2.75 quarts of ATF Dexron III. Our concierge service is available if you have questions about component selection - our team will help ensure every part matches your project and budget.
