Default auto to manual conversion

hey i was thinking of converting my c-4 3 speed to a manual and use a t-5 tranny, im kinda of tired of being on the 3rd gear on the freeway.....beside i like to actually have control driving the car..but anyways what are some of the things that i may do i looked at mustangmonthly, and they didnt really explain about the certain things like adding a clutch pedal, and the conversion kit so it can hold up the t-5, but what do you guys think?? should i stay automatic or go manual?

also im doing alot of horsepower mods etc...

well, lets see... You're going to need a bellhousing, a flywheel, a complete clutch, throw out bearing, tranny, clutch linkage, clutch pedal assembly, and so on. Take a look at moderndrivelines.com
