Dude... DID YOU WIN THE LOTTERY?!?! GOD DANG! Either that or your scammin the make a wish foundation. HAHA Next post is gonna be, "which s/c should I get..." You better say your selling off your 2 children for all this stuff to make me feel better...

But to answer your question, I think yes, it needs to be shorter. Not positive, I just really wanted to post to complain about you, and I felt obligated to give some sort of answer.

Err I mean no, I don't think stock driveshaft will work, I think it has to be shorter, as the TKO is longer.

Do you have an "in" on the TKO? If not might I suggest a G-Force tranny/kit? Keeps your stock T-5 case with upgraded gears/mainshafts etc. http://www.g-forcetransmissions.com/default.htm Click on the T-5 and go from there. Also those are 26 splined input so you will need a 26 splined clutch disc/kit.

Yes, I can get a TKO 600 local for $1,675 ......... thats not too bad a price, on the internet at $1,800+
at the Ford dealer, lol.
Thats also cheaper than a G-Force T-5 and stronger, 600ft/lbs for the TKO 600, over kill but wtf.

Wish I could afford the new GT-500 or GT-40 super car they have sitting in the showroom[sm=gears.gif]


No lottery win, had a couple nice sales come thru all at once, got some extra bucks
always wanted a 5.8L and my T-5 is already on its last leg. (hard to get in gear, grinds sometimes, ect.ect..)
