Now, I did my searching on stangnet and google, I coudlnt find the answer for my question.

I am going to be using a late model bellhousing with my early style clutch linkage. Rather than pay sacramento mustang 350+ dollars for a t5 bellhousing with the fulcrum kit installed, I would rather spend 50 bucks on ebay for a bellhousing, and another 35 for the fulcrum kit.

Has anyone installed a fulcrum kit before? I imagine it has to be pretty precise, and I am not too fond of drilling into aluminum, and I'm not sure if you have to tap those holes either....

this article gives good commentary/pics on the fulcrum. I use a cable clutch so I cant speak from experience.
