another T-5 question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Thinking of putting a NWC T5 out of a 1984 Camaro in my 1960.But I have a couple of questions :
I have read that you can use your original bell housing and fork
1)Mine being a 60 has a hydraulic set up ( not on the passenger side but on the driver side) will that work with the T-5 ?
2) The Tranny has an electrical speedo, can I just buy an after market unit and wire it directly to the sensor , since I am using my 250 and of course has no pcm .
3) Will the T-5 need a rear cross member?
4) Am I right that a Camaro trans needs no mods to bolt on?
I am not running bench seats so shifter location is a non issue.
Thanks
