I just built a T-5 with the Gforce gear kit but havn't finished my AOD to T-5 conversion. I should start pounding it Monday. I can tell you this the Kit fits perfectly and looks way stronger built then then standard T5 or T5Z trans gears. They claim 600 HP it sure looks like it to me.

i wouldnt pay the extra money for the x2c prepped tko for your setup, i think that a regualr tko would be more than sufficient
im gettin the v2.0 tko from x2c, but im gonna be in the 650-700 rwhp and 750+ rwtq on nitrous, and i think it will do just fine, a regular tko would probably be fine in my car but im not gonna risk it since im up there in power

I already have a bellhousing a blowproof one. See that is the thing why spend that much on a used one that was already abused. The tranny is only 1350 new
