Transmission Suggestions
I currently have a 87' with a 302 and a NP435 transmission. I just purchased a 351w and had it bored 30 over and put in a mild cam. I was wondering what manual transmission would bolt up to the 351 and would be able to handle the extra power? As well as move quicker than the NP435. Maybe the ZF5?
thanks in advance

There are plenty of car transmission alternatives from mild (T5) to wild (Tremec T56) and beyond. What is your budget, build skills and intended purpose of the truck?

As mentioned the ZF5 is more than strong enough. The problem is its gear ratios aren't any better than the transmission you have now. They might actually be a bit worse.
Your only options are only really to use the ZF5, or as mentioned use something like a T56. But the T56 was only offered in RWD configurations as far as I know.
