t5 trans swap?
are you using mechanical linkage? if you are and need to know what works and whast doesnt pm me and ill help you out
I appreciate the offer of a P M, but having followed this thread with great interest from it's beginning, I'm sure many others here will want you to share with them too.
A little background to show why we decided get a shell to jig up with;
My Feather is a factory 4 spd car and I'm very reluctant to carve up the tunnel. While I have a Mustang T5 and I'm sure I would enjoy it behind my 340, I'm leaning more toward the cast iron 833OD I picked up a couple of years back (I want to rebuild the aluminum one and keep it behind the slant). I'm using iron manifolds to begin with to facilitate using a stock type clutch linkage and Firm Feel fast ratio steering arms with power steering (car was/is 4spd, power steering, manual disc brake car). Also, after I convert to four wheel disc, I may see the need for a power booster.
My friend has both a Dart 4dr and a 68 Barracuda, both are automatics he plans on converting to T5s. With a triple Weber DCOE setup on the slant in one, and a stout LA (with a Quick Time bell) in the other it should get interesting.
We both enjoy showing the taillights on a "grandma's car" to the ricers around a corner. Listening to a great sounding motor winding up though the gears is fun too.
