yeah, i'm kinda ummmmmm, i have a pedal assembly, and a cross member, and am slowly piecing parts together for a t-5 conversion. i'd love to have a built aod, but i was originally lookin for a stick anyway, and i know if the aod ever goes i aint gonna have 2 grand to do it right, so while in this process i'm trying to familiarize myself with t-5 stuff so along the way if i see something dirt cheap i can add it to my t-5 conversion stash. i'm assuming when the time comes i should be able to find a excellent working t-5 for 500 or less, but i don't know enough about them to know whats what, yet anyway. i see alot of them on e-bay but thats kinda a crap shoot depending on what you pay for them. i won't be dragging it, just need somethin that'll be good for what will be a mellow driveable 13 second car on the motor........so a t-5 from what i've seen should work for that.
