I've been reading all over the internet and here about t5 swaps. Info overload.....

The setup:

73 coupe 351w truck motor w/ fmx currently installed

Have t5 from a 96 v6 car.

My car is going to be a cruiser, not a drag car by any means

I've read that I need a late model truck 164t flywheel, starter and clutch correct?

The endine is out f a 72? truck is there an OZ change that i need to worry about?

I'll need a pedal assembly, should I go cable or hydraulic

what am i missing?

Also, regarding the hydraulic or cable question, a lot depends on if you already have long tube headers installed. The cable usually wants to go right thru the space where the # 7 tube goes. Hydraulic mounts closer to the firewall
