 92 LX 5.0 AOD to T-5 swap questions. I NEED HELP!
Recently I purchased a 1992 Mustang LX 5.0 convertible and the transmission went out this past week. I've only owned the car since 4-4-08 and I've NEVER owned a domestic, much less a V-8! I LOVE MY MUSTANG, but I'm not partial to the AOD that's currently bolted in place. So I did a little research and figured out I wanted to do the T-5 swap.
So far I've bought:
-used shifter and bezel
-NEW flywheel
-NEW clutch kit with pressure plate/clutch disc/and release bearing/pilot bushing/bearing and alignment tool.
-used clutch fork
-used clutch cable
-aluminum quadrant
What I NEED:
-manual trans pedal assembly
...and I'm not sure what else I'm going to need..?? I'm doing the swap AS I TYPE and at the current moment I have my driveshaft removed and half of my exhaust off the car. My stock "H" pipe is giving me problems and the bolts at the header WILL NOT BUDGE! What can I do to get my "H" pipe off?... I'm thinking of hacksawing it just behind the front cats... Can I still drive it to a muffler shop after doing the swap like that?
My main question is... Do I have all the parts covered?... How am I supposed to get the old rusted bolts on my header to budge or come off?... And does ANYONE have a manual pedal assembly they want to get rid of??..
Any help would be MUCH appreciated since I'm NEW to the mustang scene.
Thanks for your help and input!
Todd
