Read the posts, and I think there is some confusion.

GM T5s prior to the 93 model year have the GM bolt pattern on the main case, and would use a 93 or earlier S-10 with 2.8 V6 bell housing to bolt to 60 deg V6.

S-10 and Camaro T5s from the 93 and 94 model years, the main case on the trans has the Ford bolt pattern, you use the bell from a 93 or 94 S-10 with a 2.2L four to bolt to a 60 deg V6.

GM T5s prior to 93 have two different input shafts, 1" diameter x 14 spline on the T5s that came behind fours and V6s, 1-1/8" diameter x 26 spline on T5s in V8 CamarosF'Birds. The 93 and 94 Camaro and S-10 trannies have the 1-1/8" x 26 spline input shaft. If you have the 1 x 14 input, you use the clutch disc from a eighties S-10 (NAPA RCF 4203). If you have the 1-1/8 x 26 input, I would use the disc from a 93 or 94 S-10 with 2.2L.

If you have a T5 from a Mustang, se my previous post.

fords own 60 degree line-up includes either the 2.8 or 2.9, the 3.0 and the 4.0 both ohv and sohc versions. the 3.8 is a 90 degree based on the 5.0 and so is the 4.2.

i know rangers use a mazda tranny m5od-r1, or some other foreign tranny, and i think the f-150's got a m5od-r2. the new 06+ mustang v6's are getting the 4.0 sohc with a 5 speed option that is supossed to be a t5.

2.8 AND 2.9, not or.

The EARLY ranger had the 2.8, but then was changed to a 2.9, probably a marketing reason. "Ford, because we're bigger then Chevy".

the rangers/exploders used an m5od-r1 from the late 80s on. before that, they used a mitsubishi 5 speed wich was an absolute eice of junk. the f150s with straight 6, 302 and 351 used an m5od r2. the m5od is actualy a ford designed tranny, built by mazda.

The T5 in the S-10 should have a removable bell housing anyway, so if you can find one of those... lol

I'm planning on a motor swap for my S-10, so hopefully my T5 is up to the task (still a 60 * V6)

Im pretty sure that if its a world class or not all borg warner trannys are up for anything.. u can slam & grind gears with them all day and it juss seems to goes into gear better.. lol I had a 5 speed BorgWarner in my 4cyl chevette and it outlasted 4 chevette engines, 2 rearends, and 3 sets of tires, 3 motormounts and im still using it in a diffrent chevette an A-1 tranny, then my 2.8L chevette got a t-5 from an s-10 and it has also outlasted 2 engines and still kickin,

thats because your trannies were behind 2.8's and 4 cylinders.

put a t5 behind any sort of real power and it's toast. there is a reason they only came with v6 and 305 f-bodies and the 350 was automatic only.

I dont think he is talking about a v8 with any kind of power heer, and my point wasnt that u can use a chevette t5 tranny behind a bigblock, my point is these are super strong trannys for there stock application thus any other tranny would blow.. The car my 5 speed is in now had blown 2, 4 speed trannys before mine was put in there, and ya 2.8Ls arent any sort of power but that dosent say anything for the 4-speeds that were equiped on the S-10, I was a passenger witness to a chevette with a 2.8L 4 -speed chucking second gear thew the case.. guess the tranny couldent handle the bottle(engine did tho)

Dont forget they came behind V8 mustangs right up until the current generation. Infact the new one may still use one. They have Tremec has T5's rated from 150 to 350 LBS of torque. Aftermarket suppliers have ones into the 600LB range. If you get a T5 from behind a V8 it will be spronger than a 4 cyl one. Your first indication can be seen with the larger input shaft found behind V8's
