Fox Mustang Tranny Sawp Question

[frankenstang]

Over at corral.net there should be about a metric ton of info on this swap. I did it on mine and it wasn't so bad. What is seldom mentioned is the trans tunnel problem. You can get the shifter to fit by cutting the floor, but it looks like hell when your done. Try to find a manual donor car and remove the 'hump' that is spot welded to the tunnel. It will raise the shifter location a tad and allow the metal seal/plate that sits over the shifter to fit correctly. Also get an aftermarket clutch quadrant to replace the fragile factory one. You will need a firewall adjuster to go with the quardrant. Try to find a factory Ford clutch cable. The aftermarket adjustable ones break often and dont have the same 'feel'. I just installed a kit from Maximum Motorsports and the action is a lot easier and smoother than it was.
