$0.02.

Installed new, blueprinted (Liberty Transmissions), T5Z behind tweaked (hydraulic roller, TFS heads, usual stuff) 351W. Car is daily driver, cruiser, road trips, and some highway horseplay. 12,000 miles on car now and no problems with trans. Shifts like a Honda, and seems like it will last as long as the car does.

For track use, why use an OD trans? Would a 4 spd toploader not give acceptable service? For BB street use, a Richmond 5 spd would seem to offer strength and better gear ratios than Tremec.
