Re: T5 vs AX 5 or AX15
Why would anyone spend 4x the amount to only get partial synchronization and a complicated shifting sequence with two shift levers when you can have it all in one simple unit. I have installed both the Jeep and the S10 using various adaptor suppliers and both were quite simple and certainly rewarding when driving. Once you have installed the Mitchell, the car is modified, so what is the difference? As far as the clutch goes, we used a Burtz flywheel in both cases and a 9" V8 clutch assembly. No machining. Pedals and mechanical brakes are not affected. In any case, the driveshaft has to be shortened or modified. The gearing along with the lighter flywheel gives you better drivability. This past summer, three out of four people that drove my RPU have acquired S10 T5s.
