you might be able to get an additional $100 over a normal t-5 if someone is looking for one.

I had a z spec in my 93. I like the gear ratios of a t-5Z better than a normal t-5. I also like the pocket style bearing for the input shaft better that came in it and the extremely late t-5's too

Yeah, the Z-spec is basically a '93 Cobra T-5 with different gear ratios and only a slightly higher torque rating. Definitely worth a bit more than a World Class T-5, but only if the buyer knows the difference.

Nice find.

After you're done with the build, would you be interested in selling any of the left-over parts?

The Z's are also faceplated, correct?

No. Like Brian mentioned in an earlier post. The z-spec is the 93 cobra t-5 with a gear ratio change and that is it.

It breaks just like a t-5.

Mine was rebuilt many times
