TKO going in a 91 mustang...do I have to do anything special at the crossmember? I will be using a Lakewood bell...do I need a new motorplate or will the one off of the stock T-5 bell work? Thanks in advance tonyalester@earthkink.net

the lakewood should come with its own motor plate...crossmember spot welds have to be ground down to let it slide back

the block plate will work fine. Don't forget to get a new driveshaft yoke.

no, if hes using the lakewood scattershield, he needs to use the lakewood plate.

just as i said haha

if you have a brand new TKO it should of came with the correct driveshaft yoke...but if you got it used and dont have it...either find a tremec dealer to get you one...or if you dont already have a alum. driveshaft get the shaft for the mod motors
