I bought my 64 1/2 and it is was a 6 banger, but has a 302 in it now....anyway, it has an auto in there now, and I know it's been asked 100 times over, but how hard is it to do a 4 speed or a 5 speed (T 5 ) in there?

install clutch pedal assembly with linkage
pull old transmission
pull flexplate
install pilot bearing
install block plate, then flywheel
install clutch/pressure plate
line it up
bolt on the bell housing
get the throw out bearing/clutch fork ready
stab the transmission
bolt it up
Putting a 4 or even a 5speed is a bolt in operation. I found the hardest part was finding the bell crank (z bar) and related linkages and the clutch pedal assembly.

I've heard you need to shorten your drive shaft depending on what bell housing you used (old or new)....which is also a very simple thing....drop it off at machine shop... "ok cut XX" off"...then just reinstall it i think.
If you use the correct Toploader, no mods necessary to the driveshaft. The combined length of the bell and transmission is the same as a C-4. Same trans X-member and mount for both.
