Would this shifter bolt onto a stock T-5 shifter? Thanks,

It will "work", but is pretty tall at 11.5", and only has 2" of bend back according to HURST.
Most people seem to prefer 8-10" in height, and 3-7" of curve back for T5 shifters...

Yes, it is very tall. The better choice is the Hurst stick #5388550. It is 8.6 inch heigh. It fit perfectly.

And that will fit onto my stock T-5? I am hoping that I will not have to purchase an entire new shifter assembly.

BTW, I love the console with the manual transmission. I would love to keep my auto console but I don't feel like spending the amount it cost to purchase an manual transmission console.

Believe me, the stick fit without mods.
It was on my T5 and now is it on the TKO. You can take
a white Hurst shifter knob with five speed pattern.
That looks very awesome in a vintage stang.

Markus, what boot did you use for the shifter? Looks good!

Hi,

the boot is from a 69/70 Mustang with Hurst shifter
(flat stick). I get it from Mustangsunlimited.
The part number is D0ZZ7277B and cost $18,95.
I fit perfect with the console and the stick. Without console
you can use a boot from Hurst with chrome frame.
The stick i got from summit (#HUU-5388550, price $53,95).
