t-5 or clutch gone?
i got a 87 formaula with 350 bored out with big cam, 373's with a t-5. Left from a dead stop reved it up and dumped it i was kinda drunk and tried hittin the brake to sit still and bake the tires up because they were dry rotted anyway. so i missed the brake and next thing i knew i took oof in first and tried to hit second and it was gone and so was 3,4,5, and reverse. Came to a stop and could not move at all. wheni push the clutch in and let out nothin. but I noticed when I brought the clutch to the top i heard a spinning noise or scrapping noise. like the clutch was stripped. I just wanna no how much money i am talkin about to fix this .

Blew up your clutch. Shouldn't be playing with cars that way when you are "kinda drunk". Gonna hurt yourself or even worse, someone else. Wrenching while having a few is ok, but no test drives.

That said, at the very least, the trans has to come out; you'll be able to tell better then.
I just had my clutch replaced.
Total it was $450
I think parts were around 300, labor was around 150.
That includes the flywheel getting machined as well.
That is a standard clutch too as I am all stock, I didnt see the need to put in a performance clutch.
hope that helps.
