1967 Mustang 6 Cylinder 5 Speed Transmission T-5 Conversion Kit on 2040-parts.com
Columbus, Ohio, US
This is a very complete conversion kit created to convert an existing 3 or 4 speed manual transmission 6 cylinder 1967 Mustang to a 5 speed T-5 manual transmission. Everything you will need with the exception of the actual transmission is included. We include all the hard to find and completely correct mounting hardware in well labeled packages. We also include an original appearing 1967 manual transmission shifter handle that has been professionally modified to bolt to the T-5. We also include the black with white numerals shifter ball. Unless they look at the shifter ball pattern anyone looking into your car's interior will think it is a 3 or 4 speed. It looks that authentic. Two holes have to be drilled into the bell housing to accept the adapter plate and the drive shaft must be shortened 1 inch. That's it. No cutting or welding required. The T-5 shift lever will come through the floor in the same location as the 3 or 4 speed lever did.
Why convert to a 5 speed T-5 manual transmission? If you have ever driven a 3 or 4 speed manual transmission Classic Mustang at freeway speeds you know that it feels like it is really wound tight. It feels like it should shift again. With the T-5 just slip it into 5th gear over drive and watch the RPM's drop. Now you can cruise at lower RPM's which is easier on the engine and also significantly increases gas mileage. Your engine will last longer, Your wallet will like the increased gas mileage, and the Mustang's noise level will drop significantly. There is a good reason why all modern cars are equipped with overdrive transmissions. Also original 6 cylinder 3 or 4 speeds transmissions have proven to be troublesome over the years and many folks do not enjoy the 3 speed manual transmission. Keep in mind that there was no alteration to your Mustang's body. Keep the take off parts and put the car back to stock at any time. Once you enjoy a 5 speed my guess is switching back will never happen. Here is what you get in this thoroughly thought out kit;
T-5 Adapter plate for a 6 bolt bell housing.
Adapter plate mounting hardware
T-5 Transmission cross member
Cross member correct mounting hardware
T-5 transmission mount insulator
Transmission mount insulator correct mounting hardware
Drive shaft slip yoke for the T-5
T-5 shift lever with stock 4 speed shift lever appearance

1967 5 speed shift knob

This is a complete kit as you can see. We did not include the actual T-5 transmission as many Mustang owners feel they can locate a good used T-5 and save some hard earned money in the process. We can supply a new T-5 at an additional cost if you like the idea of a everything being new.

Wide-ranging, weird and wonderful John Scotti Collection to cross block in Auburn
Mon, 28 Apr 2014The John Scotti Collection is, we'd like to think, exactly the sort of assemblage of cars we would put together were we a mechanic who earned his fortune building a group of successful Montreal-based car dealerships. To be sure, the collection of roughly 450 cars represents Scotti's tastes, which seem to tend toward the muscular. But the man, who sells everything from Mitsubishis to Lamborghinis, did an admirable job branching out from the standbys that seem to fill the ranks of every large collection, finding room for both the commonplace and the strange.

Driven: Nissan Juke
Wed, 25 Aug 2010Nowhere is the fragmentation of established market segments more evident than when thumbing through Nissan's current brochures. The new Nissan Juke, the smallest and most extreme member of Nissan's crossover range, is pitched as an 'urban proof' alternative to more conventional superminis. We took it to the streets to see how Nissan's scattershot small car strategy – which sees a range of four models occupying a similar space physically and fiscally – plays out.
