Guys w/T5
My T5 has been enjoying the Dex III in it right now, its a 90 WC.
I can't see any pictures right now because I'm at work but I went with a Reenmachine shifter. http://www.reenmachine.com/shop/prod...1&cat=0&page=1 I went with the tall one they suggested to me and I'm glad I did. It puts the shifter in the pretty well prefect position.
But what size bolts did you go for the shifter to the trans? I just broke the placeholder I had for mine.
Oh yeah are you changing the rear gear. I strongly recommend it. My 2.79's were good for the stock 3 speed but it seems a little lax with the extra gears. I'm swapping mine out for some 3.80's soon as my friend finds them in his garage and mails them to me.

EDIT: the bolt size is M8-1.25x20mm I bought a pack of 4 at autozone for 2.29. They are a little shorter than the stock bolt I have, but they do the job.
I will change gears sometime next year. the 8" rear I have has 3.00 gears. I am going to go with 3.55s whenever I upgrade.

I've heard the T5 makes a big difference and though it was time to swap.
Went over to my moms friends house about half an hour ago and got to their 66 GT Fastback in Ivy Green, beautiful! Also has a 65-66 convertible V8 that need to be assembled. Her husband also bought a 65-66 vert from pennsylvania and should be getting it sometime. It wasn't in as good of condition as stated so the owner is going to fix it and have them look at it again. If it is up to what they expect they will bring it here, if not he will refund their money.
Didn't get any pics since the GT was under car cover.
