It looks like after 107,000 miles (90,000 with the blower) my T-5 (1994 GT) has finally started to give up the ghost. It's leaking fluid through the front (or my rear main seal leaks a damn good impression of tranny fluid). I'm looking to have it rebuilt and upgraded (T-5z specs, upgraded internals where possible). I know it'll never be rated for the 460rwtq it's seeing but it's done a great job for a long time at those power levels and it'll probably never see slicks. Any recommendations on where I should get it rebuilt? I'll be replacing my 65,000 mile King Cobra clutch at the same time so I'm open to recommendations there as well.

I'm located in Dublin but I don't mind driving an hour or 2 if it means a more reliable shop.

Bruce is the best I know of around the bay area. He's in San Jose

And for the clutch http://www.superior-friction.com/

Robin makes some awesome clutch's that handle your kind of power no problem with great pedal effort.
