Transmission swap

[DaWizard]

Mitch, I'm not sure where this should be placed, so I'm asking here.

I have been pondering a trans swap to a 5spd OD transmission and was wondering what the experts out in interweb land think.

I know I am going to need to pull the trans sooner or later and when I do, I want to get me a 5spd OD and install that instead putting the original back.

I have been reading about the T5 and the F-150 but can't decide which.

Sock it to me, I want to know which is easiest, least amount of cutting, and who supplies "Adapter kits ONLY" because I have a great source for the transmissions. (stepson works in auto salvage)

Yes, I am willing to lose the far rear FaM mount, or I may fabricate a new one if needed, but I think Bill has the right of it and it is not necessary.

Oh sorry guys, maybe better served in Off Topic.

Wiz,
I would suggest you talk to:

Dave Delmue
408-722-2518

He makes the F150 complete kit as well as an S10 kit (furnish your own tranny).
He can give you the +/- on each.

While you are at it, recruit him over here. He's on "the other board" as Old Victoria

Carl.. talked with Dave and he has been banned too and has a name here that he can't remember the name or password for.

[DaWizard]

Thanks Carl, I'll give him a jingle in the morning.

[Mitch]

HE WAS BANNED TOO !!

I will get him going here thanks for the info

[Mitch]

He was already here under old victoria

Just talked to Dave on the phone.
It's all good now

[BNCHIEF]

Banning good people with knowledge, what a concept.

[Mitch]

Simply amazing, what a gentleman he is on the phone.
He now has my info for any forum help

After seeing what some people were banned for saying good morning would do it if someone complained.
