A couple years ago, I asked SVPU how they made the custom molded center console peice for their T5 Mark, or if I could buy one from them. He replied something about that they couldn't because different cars have different fitment.
lol...I thought what an insincere reply that was. The tranny can only bolt into one place...duh! He could've just said he didn't want to.
Thanks for the reply... Oh, don't get me wrong, I hear ya! I'm sure he is a stand up guy; he's done some wonderful things. Hell, most of us stand-up comics do tend to come off a little short at times.LuxurySportCoupe said:Dfferent five speeds - the tremec & t5 have different shifter locations. Different options for shifter locations, different options for shifters, different options for shift handles, different options for 84-89 trim and 90-92 trim, ever think about that? Pauls a stand up guy but can come off short on some of his replies, he does not care much about mark vii's anymore. No doubt he could have, but i'm sure his time and effort would definitely outweight the price he could get...just not worth it i guess.

I was specific that it was a t5. But I've never read anything about different shifter locations when converting a mustang to a tremec. Only different bellhousing. I really don't think there's a change in stick spot. Are you sure about this? Now I'm curious.
Different trim options?..sure. But I asked about the one in the photo. I see now that it wasn't custom molded at all. Just a smooth cut.
Not a big deal. This project car is coming to completion 10yrs later and that's just one other thing I'll have to tackle myself. :wrench
Oh, Great info, thanks, mate.LuxurySportCoupe said:They are very close, but not exact. For example my tremec has 3 different locations you can put a shifter. Not to mention they made four speed toploaders too. Different handles and shifters move the handle around just so slightly.
Awwe sh*t! That'll be an awesome powersource, mate! Woah! Well, so long as you don't live in Florida, I won't feel the need to go better.LuxurySportCoupe said:Lol, thats true. I had to get a tremec tko 600. I knew the engine i'm building would need it. Luckily, I found and bought a 351w block this weekend. Thinkin a TT393 Stroker motor is in store.
Awesund said:...Wait... . Josh has to come in here and wish you "good luck getting all that HP to the rear wheels." .
:joke Josh.
JoshMcMadMac said:He'll definitely need to beef up the rear if he doesn't want to puke the stocker.
Awesund said:Oh...ummm, okay nevermind. :shifty:
Hell, we didn't know you building a Nascar.
