I personally would go the getrag, I've already blown a rebuilt t5 bw box simply by chirping 3rd but that was with 275s and a brass button clutch. I've heard the getrags handle more power but that's just what I've heard. If I could do the auto-manual conversion again id just go the t56 from the ls series motors.

Every time i hear of a t5 popping its allways 3rd ahaha. I am running my t5 behind a l67 and decided on a decent HD clutch over a button simply because i was worried about 3rd gear and i thought a HD will slip before blowing the box
