I'm sure it can be done, probably costly though.
Ive never had two t5's side by side to compare. Call a juck yard up and ask. Junk yards know all the tricks and if it can be done they will know.

merry christmass and a happy 2002. Back at ya.

Ede is correct, there's very little in common between a Mustang T5 and an F-body T5. It wont work and its not worth the hassle trying to make it work.

seems that the concensus is clear.
i won't try it.
if it's that complicated it'll make no sense.
thanks to all for the advise...it is sad because i drove a cobra a couple of months ago and i did love the way that tranny is set, ONLY THAT, no muswang will take away my love for CAMARO.
CAMAROS FOREVER !!!.
Fernando.
