So I've been doing some research and reading all the old threads about putting a Foxbody T5 WC behind a Mopar. I know some people will say its not worth it and it wont hold up but thats fine. If I blow it up, I'll rebuild it or get one of the Z spec tranys from summit.
For the people that are interested here is a list of parts that I have gathered so far to start the swap.
I already had the flywheel, clutch pedal assembly, T5 and drive shaft.
Ford clutch kit - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/zzz-mu48-1
Wilwood master cylinder - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/wil-260-3374
Ball end for the master - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-msf5
Quick time bell - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/qti-rm-6071 OUCH
Mopar pilot bushing for the conversion - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/bca-fc69907
Taller ford transmission mount - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ani-2784
Clutch line - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/afc-40280
External slave bracket - http://dazecars.com/dazed/test.html#3
Slave cylinder - http://www.speedwaymotors.com/Push-T...nder,1944.html
This will put me right around $1000 for the swap. Plus all the fab work for the installation.
Im gonna have my buddy redrill my flywheel to accept the ford clutch, that way if anything ever happens its a simple parts store replacement.
I had been searching for the last couple weeks on which internal hydraulic throwout bearing to use and the prices for everything are so ridiculous and half of them are meant to work for the world class trany. That being said I stumbled upon that bracket and using the external slave since I have the clutch fork and everything else with the T5.
I'll also have to modify the drive shaft and either find a conversion joint for the 8 3/4 or have someone put a new yoke on it.
