need some advice

[71shortwide]

Iam stuck at the moment on my truck. I want to put a 5 speed in my 71 but i have run in to a few snags. first i came across a camaro t5 and changed out the tail housing for a s-10 housing which went smooth until i noticed the speedo is about 1 to 2 inches off. So i have been searching and know i can use a s-10 t5 (which i have 3 ) but i dont know how much trouble it is goin to be. I have been looking at a tko but i dont want to blow all my money on it.

So here is my question, What other options do i have ? I have checked out nv 3500 5 speeds but i dont know how hard it would be to attach the clutch cylinder to the brake pedal. would do you guys think ? i am trying to get it running again so i can go to a cruise in branson coming up soon and its a lil stressful. Thanks guys
