Who has a 2.95 1st gear T5 with 3.64 rear gear and how do you like it?
I currently have 3.97 1st and find it and 2nd gear, way too short.

I put a 2.74 first gear set in my T9 and love it. It's pretty tall, but the gap to second seems perfect.

The 1983 1/2 and '84 non-WC T5's have the 2.95 1st gear. Only difference is the '84 with a .625 5th and the '83 1/2 with a .725 5th.
I just happen to have an '84 and I plan to use it. It'll need to be rebuilt, but it should be impressive with 300+ BHP behind it.  |

I think I am going to go with a fully built Amber Performance unit with a .63OD for high top end.
