Thank your guys. If I was to go out to the local junk yard what parts would I be needing to get? I'm not that great with cars... motorcycles on the other hand I'm comfortable with. Soo, I'm guessing I would need a Clutch, pedals, Transmission, shift ****, and the wiring. Anything I left out? Because I may go out and do that until I can afford a brand new car.... like say a 2010 Mustang with the rumored 5.0L engine!

Yes, you left all the other crap I told you that you'd need in my first post.


I swear, sometimes these forums are like talking to a brick wall.

Haha, alright. I'm sorry, I thought that was for if I went through with the engine swap.

Oh, wait a minute. You just want to do the trans swap? Thats pretty simple. Trans, bellhousing, clutch fork, clutch, clutch cable, pedal assembly, shifter, and the trim ring. You'll also need the harness for the neutral safety switch, and reverse lights. Save yourself the hassle and buy an adjustable cable, and an adjustable quadrant, with the firewall adjuster.

Sorry bro. I thought you were still talking about putting the 521 in.
