    Is that including the T5 slip yoke and U-joints?

    AeroStar Drive Shaft Question

    Yeah, I looked at the past threads but I never saw anything about the year. Thanks.. I know that they have to be shortened. So would my stock shaft after a T5 swap. I would also have to change U-joint at that time. I figure it’s a better option than my stock shaft.

    4 speed versus 5 speed trans

    It won't start. That's why like pushrodpower said you just splice them together to complete the circuit.

    4 speed versus 5 speed trans

    A TKO is a Tremec Heavy duty 5-speed transmission. They come in a few varieties for your specific application. The problem with them in classic mustangs is that their may or may not be some modifications to your transmission tunnel to get the proper pinion angle. Top Loaders are called that...

    Hpipe or Xpipe?

    That's what I have. Strait dual. I like the way it sounds now, but I was thinking of going to a H-pipe when I replce my headers in the spring.

    sand blasting

    I hope you mean Media blasted. Sand Blasting is rough on sheet metal. Not sure about So-Cal prices. I saw an ad for a local shop up here (WI) that will disassemble and media blast a car for 5k.

    Quality long tube Headers and a 4-speed

    I called Ford Power Train and the guy I spoke with was great. Their long tube headers will NOT work with a Z-bar. They where designed for clearance and 5-Speed swaps. So that is a factor if I stay with my Top loader 4spd. In case you are wondering about the price. FPT = Uncoated $ 495...

    Quality long tube Headers and a 4-speed

    Those are nice and look like they could work with a Z-bar. A bit spendy though. I know that you get what you pay for..

    Quality long tube Headers and a 4-speed

    Looking at them online I don't think they would work with Z bar? Do they? I know they work with a Mustang Steve cable clutch from his website..

    Quality long tube Headers and a 4-speed

    I was trying to stay away from Hooker Super Comps because they are thinner gauge steel than the Hooker Comps. My logic is thicker steel is better for longevity/reliability.?. The Ford Power Train headers are nice.. $450 is steep + coating. Anyone have these what is the price for a set that...

    Quality long tube Headers and a 4-speed

    I have a 67 Fastback w/ a 4spd. I have a funky set of headers on it. They were on the car when I bought many years ago. The driver side are in 3 pieces to go around the clutch assembly. They weird thing is that after the clutch assembly all the tubes line up and the other 2 pieces of the header...
