shouldnt be that hard just gotta but the bellhousing so you can run a T5 on it and mustang clutch an gonna have to mess with the Tranny crossmember, but i think they make a aftermarket one dont remember I was gonna do this too but just slap a 4 speed in it instead good luck with project.

Chevy has there own t5 don't limit yourself thinking ford only had it. Shit it may fit perfect and the clutch size might work. Just measure the shifter hole for the floor in relation to where the trans will sit

I would think you would need a custom driveshaft as well if you use the Ford T5.
