I'm putting an '88 5.0 roller motor with a T-5 while I redo the '64 1/2's original 289. This way I can really take my time selecting parts and machine shops, etc.

Good Luck,
Brian

You can put a T56 behind a 5.0. May require some tunnel mods, but it's a good tranny. Talk to Modern Driveline and they should be able to get you set up.
