    Well, Scarebird front discs DON'T WORK!!

    There's nothing wrong with 10.25" rotors on a street car. The stockers aren't any bigger than that anyway. In fact, I know guys who opentrack their vintage Mustangs on that size rotor (~) and the world did not end.

    I want to 'downgrade' to a v6, tell me what you think

    *patting motion* Ron.....sounds great to me. I envy those with the willpower and skill to make these sorts of projects a reality. I am gravely deficient in both, sadly. I could ponder such a project but know better (now) not to even pick up a wrench :D I must know my limitations and stick...

    t5 install (more questions) regarding install (pt 2)

    from the rear, the T-5 will appear canted off to the driver's side. That's just the way it is.

    I want to 'downgrade' to a v6, tell me what you think

    Why all the work to install an engine that weighs the same, yet is potentially less powerful, than a 289? [puzzled]

    have any suspension kits been skidpad tested?

    Im not so sure great skidpad = great handling. Real-world handling is all about transitions and stability from one dynamic to another....a steady-state skidpad number is only one part of a very large picture. I would put more credence in autocross/slalom results, road course results...

    WTB Clutch Pedal parts

    http://feedback.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=pocospop You can add the pedal to the existing assy. Add the clutch pedal, then cut down your wide brake pedal pad down to size with a cutoff wheel or equivalent.

    how can we advise if we don't know your budget?

    Few quick suspension questions.

    That's cuz they are cheap. KYB makes a softer shock (GR-2, I think), or the Edelbrock IAS shocks seem to work well. Early versions had a poor reputation but the current version gets good press. You can always try the GAJs and see how they work for you, since they are already in the kits...

    Small vs. Large block

    ok, sorry I misread your .sig..I thought you were planning the conversion now. I would go no larger than a 351 block.

    power steering

    Run far away. That kit is infamous for its fit problems, and the inability of the maker to correct them. You will probably get some installation horror stories on this site. Suggest you investigate either Steeriods or Randall's Rack.

    WTB Clutch Pedal parts

    Just FYI, any Mustang catalog will have the springs and bushing for $10-20, tops. You can get the pedals on eBay for ~ 50, I just got a clutch pedal (new repo) for $44 the other day on the Bay.
