thats gonna be cool! did you take the cluster out of a mustang or something? i wonder about clutch cable... or is this a pretty common swap? awesome project though ! [burnout]

Yes it will be hella fun cause the rearend is a 3:73 with trac loc. Just the pedals are off a mustang and the clutch cable is going to be out of a stock mustang. Got most of the parts from a wreck Mach 1. If anybodys got a stock '01-'04 clutch cable I need one. I'll post more pics as I do more

Wo what all do you need to do for the swap? Using a t-45 or tremec 3650? Custom driveshaft and trans mount? Cutting the floor board?

on vic's you can use either a t-45 or the tremec 3650 ( which is what i have), a stock pedal assembly off an '01-'04 mustang ( u got to cut it out and weld the tube on to the vic's assembly), the mustang yoke for the trans ,make a little notch on the stock cross member and make the drive shaft a little longer. I'll post more pics as soon as i get more stuff done
