Do you use an 80s pilot bushing or one from the original cars? I have an 89 T5 and a 69 351w. Thanks for whatever you can do...

I think they are all the same - use a roller pilot bushing instead of a bronze one though.

Those bronze ones are hard to find at a regular parts store lol. You are correct, they are the same.

got a FMS roller one, thanks guys.

for reference... the c4 is out. anyone know how to adapt a c4 or aod swap crossmember for a t5 in the the 66s (i happen to have those two, it'd be nice to not have to spend another 150 bucks if i don't have to)? currently fabbing some things so we can get the clutch cable around my headers and hooked up to the pedal, i'll let you all nkow how that goes...
