the NON WC T5 case is different, so it won't work.

but if you got your hands on a WC T5 trans and gathered parts it would cost around 800-1000

damaged T5 40-60 (needed for the case and mainshaft)
gear kit 400
master rebuild kit 200
New sliders for 1/2, 3/4 around 90
labor varies, so around 200

How do you tell the difference in the T-5 tranny's. I have a '90 LX 5.0 with a 5-speed. Which one would that have in it?

Thanks,

Thanks,

if its actually from a 90's 5.0 its deffenitly a WC T5

a sure way to know the difference is by looking at the front bearing cap (rite below the throw out bearing retainer on the main case, thats where its located).

 -

if it looks flat and machined its a World Class

if it looks like a freeze plug its a NON World Class
