I did a HG swap on my '85 CFI this weekend and now as soon as i start it up it revs really high immediately like the throttle is stuck open? I have to shut it off as soon as i start it. My only guess is the idle control is somehow messed up. Maybe something else? How is idle controlled on these...

I'm in the process of doing a 5-speed swap and i have some questions. I'm removed the 4 bolts and the top bolt holding the stock brake pedal assembly but there's something holding the brake switch to the pedal frame, it looks like a pin, do i just remove that? Also, how does the clutch cable...

Fred let us know how you resolve it.

I'm referring to the Tremec T-56 made for the 5.0. I didn't know FRPP made the T-56 though. This is a 94-98 Turbocharged Mustang with 2.73 stock gears? I'm willing to upgrade my rear end gear to whatever the T-5 was calibrated for or just speedo gears. But even with the 'correct' rearend...

For those who have swapped to a T56, was your speedo off? By how much?

Do the T-5 manual transmission use oil pans? I know the fill capacity is usually much much less than an auto's. So, do they have oil pans? I've never looked under a manual car so i wouldn't know.

98_stang_guy: Junkyard is the only way you could do it for $900 or even less. I actually helped the guy remove it since the donor vehicle just came in and was in the open, that way i'd understand how everything would be put back together. Yep, same here bellhousing won't clear the underside...

What size is the bolt? I was using a 14mm and the bolt was stripping!! Is it possible i could cut the bolt's head off with a saw/dremel? Also, Just to be sure, the bolt we're talking about is behind the flexplate/flywheel but before the engine adapter plate/block? Right now, all exhaust...

Doing the swap myself(no labor $). I'd say it can be done for $900 for all the parts including transmission. THis is assuming you have a full toolsetw/extensions and sockets to get in the tight spots.

I'm in the process of swapping in a manual transmission. I am at the point of seperating the AODE from the car b. However, even though i've removed the engine-trans bolts, the bellhousing is hitting the underbody and won't clear. And no, the bellhousing can't be seperated from the tranny in the...
