Re: Transmission Compatibility
I wouldn't put a whole lot into a T850 being an 'upgrade'. There are plenty of stories on the SRT forums of T850s going out at ridiculously low milage with fairly stock power. I don't know if the T series trannys are blowing because of power per se anyways.
If I wanted to put down 300HP, personally I'd just use a quality clutch with a soft engagement to keep tranny shock down, and put in Booger bushings to make sure I don't miss any shifts. Anyways, if you did a T850 mount in the PT you may need to get custom half shafts made, which will run you $1000 easy. Just not worth it for swapping for a tranny that has a worse record than ours.
