ok im taking a 4 speed out of an 82, and were putting in a t5...whats the same and whats different?...is the bell housing the same?...starter? i know the clutch is smaller, but will a bigger t5 clutch bolt up to the fly wheel?
also.does it use the same chutch cable and fork?...if i need a different flywheel.were can i get a 28 oz one that uses the t5 cluth? did any car come with this......i know it has to be older than 82 for the 28 oz...right?.....wow lots of questions guys..help me out....thanks
 
you will need a t5 bellhousing, the starter should be the same

i think that you can use the same 10 spline clutch (10" i think).
you may want to upgrade it to the 86- 10.5" clutch...but im pretty sure that you will need pressure plate and flywheel for 10.5" clutch.

and im not sure about the fork
 
If you have the SROD toploader trans, the bellhousing is a bolt on for a Tremec 3550 or TKO. You might be able to swap/sell it to get the T5 bellhousing.
