Re: 1965 Ford Mustang

You've got it MUCH easier! For you, make sure you use a pre 1994 GT or 5.0L World Class T5 (they have the shorter input shaft that's the same as your 3 speed) and you can reuse your stock flywheel, clutch, bell housing, Z-bar, etc. All you need is the trans, a custom T5 trans mount ~$100, and a C4 mounting pad, and possibly shorten your DS, depends on the car.

I had to spend $360 on a clutch/cable kit (included clutch pedal with cable cam welded on it.) If my car was already a manual, I would have saved like $600 and a crap load of time. I'll be lucky if it's done by late July.
