$150.00 for a T-5?
A friend is able to get me a T-5 for $150. He mentioned it may need a rebuild though. Is this a good deal? I've been looking at converting my AOD to a 5-speed.
Thanks, Justin

Well, considering that I sold my T-5 that was leaking fluid, syncros shot, and a Hurst shifter for $400 cash...I would say $150 is a good price. You can get a complete re-build kit for around $250 or so. It's the labor that will get you if you have a tranny shop do it. A local tranny shop wanted $600 in labor plus parts! So I moved up to a Tremec for $1200. hehehe
Good luck, E

Right on, thanks. Now I need to determine the cost of all the parts I'll need for the conversion. I've been told:
* tranny * bellhousing * clutch * clutch cable * clutch/brake cluster including paw and quadrent, or aftermarket one peice metal setup * gas pedal * pilot bearing * shifter * new center boot and trim * pivot ball for bellhousing * flywheel with new bolts * two bellhousing bolts, or washers to take up the space in the two upper, longer AOD bolts * pressure replate bolts and dowl pins for the flywheel * T-5 backup light wiring harness * speedomoeter gear I think I heard someone makes a kit for this, right? Can someone point me in the direction of these kits? Thanks, Justin

Try calling D&D Performance - you can reach them on the web at www.ddperformance.com - very nice people that specialize in Mustang trannies. Or try Hanlon. Not sure of their number, but they are listed in MM&FF or 5.0.
Both D&D and Hanlon have seen this swap hundreds of times I'm sure. E
