T5-t56

OK let me get this straight. From reading everything I think I got it. I am going from a T-5 to a T-56 in an 89 RS. I am putting in an LT-1. So I need a new crossmember,clutch master, and slave cylinder, and the thingy to switch to a cable speedo drive. everything else Is pretty much the same? Just want to make sure I got the right idea here. Thanks.

sounds good.

you might also want to get a aftermarket lower shifter boot to cover the slightly larger hole.
