You can put an 85-93 T5 input shaft on it, but then your bell housing is still too long which ushers in a whole new set of problems. With your current set up, the trans is only moved back 3/4", so measure the drive shaft yoke, and where the shifter sits in the shifter hole and see if you can just use what you already have.

so do you think i can just use the entire bellhousing and tranny assembly and just mod the floor where the shifter is?

If the drive shaft isn't too long, you can. Measure everything.
