I am converting a 95 Mustang GT from an automatic transmission to a 5 speed, i was hoping for some tips or input on how to make it easier.

I'm cutting up a 95 GT right now. The tranny is gone but the bell housing clutch and stuff is still here.
Good luck finding a tranny. 94-95 was unique.
You'll need to get the PCM tuned, turning off the AT functions. Don't swap to a manual PCM.

The only way to make it easier is to have someone else do the work and have someone else pay for it

I have heard that http://www.ddperformance.com/can help out alot. Think they may sell kits to do the swap. I am planing to pick up a 6 speed from them in hte near future hopefuly.

its really not that difficult..ive done two sn's now..my 94 and my buddies 95..yes the 94-95 was different than foxes..but not too much..just the imput shaft..the sn was longer so if you can find one outta them then yes its better....i have to ask why u say dont swap to a manual computer...it worked just fine for both our cars..sure u can pay someone to do it..but for one..that takes the fun outta it..and its expensive...but its whatever u want to do.

^^my advice for the pedals..pull the drivers seat..i didnt on my 94...did on buddies 95..and i ended up 1..bending the headrest bracket on mine..and 2...back was sole as crapfrom it all..on his just threw a pad over the two studs stickin up n layed flat ...n really on the sn's..i dont think the pedals are two hard...auto pedals come out pretty easy...and when ur puttin the new ones in just gotta wiggle it ...make sure u take the knuckle off the stearing shaft..but other than that..make sure u dont pinch any wires behind it either..i mananged to sandwich my amp power cable behind mine...so cut it on either side, soldierd it back together and there will forever be a chunk of amp wire behind my pedal assembly lol..

If you're going to put in a five speed, don't waste your time with a plain old t-5. Invest the extra money and please get a TKO. You'll just be pulling that t-5 out again down the road and replacing fifth gear.
