The one weekend Brantley and I went to the local yard and found two TCs and one had the turbo still there and the VAM. Brantley grabbed the turbo and I grabbed the VAM. Its a 3" to replace the small one I pulled from the 86 TC that I got my motor from. So now I need a computer to match the 35lb injectors and the big VAM. I also got a SPEC clutch from Brantley that he took from his old turbo setup. The man has lost his mind, hes going to but a twin turbo 351 in his Stang . I am sure I have all the parts I need now for the T-5 swap Just have to find a long weekend to take care of it. Its hard to work on my car here at school. But I hope to be shifting soon

You had my hopes up for a second.. i though maybe you got real abitious and swapped the tranny in, But atleast you are close now, i see no reason why couldnt get it in before winter now.. I am interested to hear how the spec is.. i almost bought one when i did mine, but the spec and the New valeo i got looked exactly the same so went with the cheaper of the 2... Except mine was painted black. Did you get the whole Clutch and PP? or just the pressure plate?
