Want to put a T5 in my 64 1/2. Need some advice.

[Mercury]

Hello there everyone.

Its been like 3 or more months since I last posted. Been very busy. Finally got my old Stang, the one with a 289, running again, and after driving it around all weekend, I've decided I want to put a 5 spd in it. Its got a C4 now. I've never done a conversion before, and have to keep it on a budget. While changing to a T5, I would like to put a nine inch, or 8.8 under the car also. Any Ideas on what other Ford car would have a 9 or 8.8 that would bolt up with no major modifications? I'm not to sure. Have any of you out there ever put a manaul tranny in an origianlly auto car? And advice would be appreciated.

Thanks much.
