I'm picking up a 2.3L mustang that's in great shape soon, to do a 5.0L swap on...

I already found a complete engine with harness, ecu, etc, and an AOD tranny (which I'm selling when I pick it up. The car is a 5-speed, and I'm putting a T-5 from a 5.0L in it's place...)
the engine also comes with a D.S....

Basically, all that's missing from the drivetrain is the rearend....

But because I'm going with the T-5 instead of the AOD, I'll probably need more parts, right?

Can someone give me a breakdown to the parts I'll need? It should end up costing me about $2500 to get the swap completed. (car is $500, drivetrain is $700, figuring other expenses as well)

Thanks in advance!
