I know you mentioned going with a 5 speed, but if you decided to go with a C-4, I've got the correct bellhousing for the mustang II with a 302, flex plate, and 2,800rpm stall converter. The converter is a nice one. It was originally made by Fairbanks Racing, and then re-worked by Art Carr. Let me know if you're interested.
You can email at "baddpony84@hotmail.com".
Good luck...........Matt

I put an '86 5.0 into my '78 Fastback. See my Cardomain page; there's a ton of information on the swap in there.

for the peddles you are going to have to start hitting the JYs

as for the KC kit a real one is going to cost the same as a new civic, but I think you can get all the stuff through mustangs unlimited for ~1000
