So Im finally gonna start tearing apart the notch now that I have a new DD. Does anyone happen to have a complete list of parts required for the AOD - T-5/Manual conversion? Ive been looking and Ive found different lists that are either incomplete or say different things than the other. Thanks in advance for the help guys!

My list consisted of the following............
-clutch pedal assembly
-block plate......bought mine new from Ebay for a really good price,works perfect
-T-5 (and fluid)
-bell housing
-clutch kit (throwout bearing,clutch,pressure plate,install tool)
-flywheel (can re-use the AOD flywheel bolts)
-locktite
-clutch fork
-clutch fork cover (fastens to the side of the T-5)....getting hard to find,many run without them
-two shorter bolts for the top two on the bell housing
-clutch cable
-aluminum quadrant
-HURST shifter and handle (brand and style are optional of course and that subject has been covered in many threads))
-console shifter plate and boot
-floor seal (seals around shifter to prevent crap from coming through the hole in the floor)
-T-5 harness (I just plugged my AOD harness in for the back up lights and let it go at that....it's been great)
-Firewall adjuster ----optional,but good to have----
-steel bearing retainer......optional,but good to have
-new rear tranny seal if you're using a used tranny
-new rear engine seal (THIS is the time to swap it !!!)
The crossmember,driveshaft,and tranny mount all stayed the same.

I think Vinnie pretty much covered it, I'll just add on...
-T5 H-pipe hanger, the AOD one will not work at all... people run without them though.
-The AOD driveshaft has a dampener thing on it, but it can still be used. I picked up a T5 shaft for super cheap on Craigslist. I didn't know there was a difference in the shafts until I did my swap.
-I heard you have to elongate or modify the mount holes on the AOD crossmember to work with the T5, my T5 kit came with the right crossmember... so I don't know from experience.
-Don't forget the little "E" clip or whatever its called to secure the clutch cable to the bell.
-If you get a FWA go with the Micro Cick style... best on the market.
