Well, heres my situation. my '86 mustang has a dying t-5 in it.. its horrible, not drivable barely. my '90 mustang is about to be put back together with a heavy H/C/I combo. i expect 300RWHP easily. it has a perfect working T-5 in it. but i fear im going to destroy that, easily. so what im doing is getting a loan from my dad for my 20th birthday to buy all this. then ill pay him back for it.

Please check over all this for me, if you know any better deals, or anything that wont work or that i should know. let me know.

i picked jegs to do all my shopping at this time, unless theres something cheaper.

JEGS:

397-M-7003-R58C : Tremec 5-Speed Extra HD Transmission : $1799.99
183-DF161057 : Centerforce DF Clutch, Mustang 5.0L 1986-95 w/26 Spline : $299.99
183-N-1714 : Throwout Bearing : $35.99
397-M-5059-A : Crossmember for 87-93 Mustang & Tremec. : $69.99
397-M-6392-R58 : Tremec Bellhousing : $189.99
183-700320 : Centerforce Flywheel, 81-Up 302 50in/oz Balance, 157 Tooth, 27.6lbs, Steel, Counter Balanced : $244.99

total: total: $2640.94 :)notnice:)


questions:

1. Can i use my '90 T-5 tranny in my '86? anything need to be changed etc?

2. Will THIS Pro-5.0 shifter work on the tranny listed? just to make sure. i hear everybody rave over their pro-5.0 so thats what id like

3. will This Flywheel work on my '86 with the '90 t-5?, with a centerforce dual friction clutch?

4. Are those aftermarket throwout bearing retainers actually helpful? or another one of those pointless parts?

Thanks for helping,
Derek

i might be able to get you better prices cuase i work at Northcoast Mustang Supply Co. i can get you wholesale prices. We deal directly with ford racing. Lemme see what i can do.

that would be awesome :nice:
 
derek, why not go for the tko from x2c motorsports. its roughly the same price as that tranny that your looking at and is a lot stronger or even the tko 500 or 600. the 500 is about 250 bucks cheaper
 
If you're spending that much have you thought about a 6 speed? I got mine from D&D for $2625 shipped. Give them a call. You don't have to change the clutch and that price comes with an aluminum drive shaft new spedo cable, crossmember tranny, shifter, and bellhousing. Just a though.
