Lots of places can provide this. Glazier/Nolan has done many of these, and they are quite good at export.

You don't necessarily need a shortened driveshaft, every car is different. I had a 6 cly coupe with auto, found a set of pedals, traded my rebuilt C4 for a T5, bought a flywheel and clutch, a new crossmember and installed it. Everything worked out fine, I have about an inch of travel in the slip yoke.

I rebuilt mine, and it's pretty easy. Let me know if you need my sources. You should really put a steel front bearing support on a T5, I had to as the original was chewed up a bit, originals are aluminum.

PM me if you need any further information. I was terrified to try it but it all went pretty well for me. I'm using the z-bar (no cables for me) and tri-y headers and all is well.

Oh, and rmodel65, your sig quote is offensive to anyone that has any sense, please consider changing it.....
