Aod To T5 Swap Question

I'll throw my 2c in here...I just finished a c-4 to t-5 swap in my 86'. First off, all of the parts will need to be compatible with the transmission you will be using. Will you be using a 4cyl., 6cyl., or 8 cyl. t-5 trans? This will affect what pilot bearing you will need to use on the input shaft. Also, the spline count on the trans. input shaft will have to be the same as the number of splines on the clutch disc. You didn't specify which king cobra clutch you will be getting, or the trans. you will be using, so I can only really emphasize that the parts need to correspond to each other...meaning that you cannot put a 10 spline clutch on a 26 spline input shaft...know what I mean? Also, I recommend getting the whole rotating assembly balanced at a machine shop along with the new pressure plate and flywheel. Now we're talking about a possible engine rebuild too...When the machine work is finished, they will usually put a mark on the flywheel, and another on the pressure plate, so that you will line them up properly when you do the final installation. This costs some bucks, but will eliminate any vibrations, or bucking when you drive the car...this is a fairly large job in my opinion, and I'll probably never do it again. I'll just get a mustang that is already a 5-speed...hope this helps, and good luck!

This is what was sent to me - I'm in the same boat for a conversion - not sure if this wil help - but it's good for a list
