Does anyone have an answer? Thank you.
yea you could use the first two slip yokes, but you will have to shorten it and change your stock u joints.
If you go with the third one, you dont have to do any cutting or changing your u joints
if you havent bought the transmission mount, fulcrum spacer kit, transmission insulator, and slip yoke; there are kits that you can buy and save your self some money.
this is the cheapest ive seen

good luck!

I will try to buy a kit for the itemsyou mentioned above.
For my 1966 4 speed, I alreadyhave a:
T-5 transmission
T-5 bellhousing
T-5 block plate
T-5 fork
T-5 throw-out bearing
mustangsteve's ball bearing pedal assembly
Diaphram clutch kit installed
5speed OEM style shift ****. I need the '65-'66 OEM style shift lever and boot.
I will be using the T-5, late model,bellhousing and a hydraulic clutch kit actuatorfrom JMC. Therefore, I don't know if I need the fulcrum kit. I believe this is asimiliar question asyour question 3 in the first post.
Do I need the fulcrum spacer kit with a hydraulic clutch?
Then measure driveline, cut if necessary, and balance.
Thanks.

Who ever said you have to rebalance the flywheel is wrong. You said yours is a 65 with a 289 and the flywheel came out of a 66 3speed manual car. The flywheel will bolt right in, no rebalance needed.
