T-5 to a T-56

I am pretty suree that the swap is going to be simple, I know that I have to fabricate for the clutch to work but will everything else bolt up just fine. I just wanna make sure that its a direct swap.

You'll have to enlarge the hole in the floorpan, the T56 extends further rearward than your T5. You'll need an aftermarket (skulte preferred) crossmember for same reason.

The electrical connectors for reverse lights and VSS are different, data's in here somewhere just search around.

The electrical output of the T56 VSS is not compatible w/ your ECM, you'll need an aftermarket (dakota digital preferred) VSS translator box.
