So here's my question.
It's an '88 'Bird.
2.8. Doing the manual conversion next week. Do the WC t5's bolt up?
I know the bellhousing is different for us.

If it doesnt, What other t5's do?
I'm worried when I start making a good deal of power i'm going to have to rely on the weaker transmissions to do the job.

The '86-up th700's can handle about 350hp without an issue. The v6 th700's are a different story. I've heard mixed things about the t5's. I've heard some of the early ones crap out at 250hp, others are fine. You can switch the bellhousings.
