T5 in 66
 
Thanks to you guys I was able to research and install a T5 in the rough 66 I bought last year. the truck came with a 283 that was hurt so I installed a crate motor and power steering in it when I bought the truck. I ran the original granny gear truck 4 speed until I could do this. All of the info as far as what trans and mods from this site was spot on and our local drive line shop was great. I love it. Now for a front cross member swap oh yeah some floors and a new windshield would help. Thanks all for your info and patience on all of my questions.

I'm jealous. I have a T5 in mine but she's not road legal yet so I've only been around the block a few times. I'm a fan of the T5 for daily drivers.
