just find the cheapest bellhousing you can, there all the same, and the same goes for the yolk...

edit the shifter that comes with it isnt the greatest, if you have the cash definetly upgrade it while its out

can't you just use the bellhousing from the stock t-5 on it???

also, how hard is it to put in a new cross member??? is it as easy as just welding it in???
