when going from a aod to t5... don't switch cpu.......

but call ford and tell them in detail what ur about to do... and they'll tell u whether to keep the same one or get another - and which ones will work.... body style doesn't mean its the right one...

5-speed would be in peices. No point in breaking a a good tranny that somone could use. Plus, I like auto's for turbo cars.

i actually think you need an AOD cpu......like i said.... CALL FORD..... thats something you just flat out have to do - even if you participated in the construction of the mustang since 1964.

another question.

About the different brake pedal. Does the brake rod, going to the master, have to be changed? Or can I just swap pedals?
