T-5?

50resto.com has a fly wheel and ram clutch kit for 339. Comes with rear main seal too. Not bad. A new bell will cost me 179.

probably. Why there bad?

 

[TERROR]

pedals arent too bad once you figure out to do it, the first time i did it it took me like a whole day because i had no clue wtf i was doing.

remove all the dash panels under the column, unbolt the column (its like 4 bolts or so) disconnect all of the harnesses going to the column nd pull it out and you can access the pedals

I'm sure it will be a pain in the a$$. I didn't expect having to pull the column though. It will be worth it.

and remove the driver seat and while your at it install a mass air system

That's a good Idea. Not sure i'll have the loot for all that though. I still have to sqeeze in some body work and a paint job this spring. It's not as clean as the pic looks. It's not bad though.

The 4 cyl 1st gear is taller than that of an 8, The optimal T5 is the 2.95 1st gear ratio. Its been reputed to be one of the stronger units. The 4 cyl trans didn't seen to last too long with a nice set of slicks, but it launced like an S.O.B. .......... ONCE
