Currently doing the exact same swap. If it weren’t for these videos I would have no clue what i’m doing. I’ve completed part 1-3 and now I am on 4. Almost finished with the car and i’m really excited. Thank you LMR
I'm not doing this at the moment but i enjoyed watching the videos, i have done this before and you can always pick a tip or 2 watching someone else do it, thank you for putting all this together.
Im doing this swap too. I bought a flywheel had the same casting number earlier to late 5.0. The difference was the pressure plate bolts are space out different. The later 5.0 uses the bolts that are further apart.
Does anyone know if the 5.0 engine in the AOD cars produces less hp and torque? I see the ratings are different but is this solely because of the difference in AOD and T-5 Manual. Or is there a difference in the actual engines that came in the auto or manual cars. Thanks!
The ratings of the transmissions are solely based on the units themselves. There were horsepower and torque differences between automatic and manual cars around the CFI era, but this had no effect on the rating of the transmissions. -Landan
Trying to do 1966 mustang with 86 AOD swap with 1997 t5 with original bell housing . What flywheel or kit do I need? Do I need a new bell housing and drive shaft?
Huan - Below are some links to a clutch kit and bell housing. You can reuse the driveshaft that's currently in the car. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks! -Landan Clutch Kit: lmr.com/item/MCL-75005BK/mustang-gt-50-mcleod-street-level-master-clutch-kit-82-93 Bell housing: lmr.com/item/M6392E/83-93-Mustang-Ford-Racing-T5-Bellhousing
@@HuanNguyen-ss7xh Let's backtrack for a second. I overlooked where you said "1997 T5 with original bell housing". What car is the T5 out of? A 1997 V6 Mustang? -Landan
What would be the cause of t5 clutch chirp it chirps when the clutch is out but goes away when it's to the floor could it be the retainer the tb or fork/pivot
There are a couple different variables that can make this swap different when using the TKO 500. Give us a call at 1-866-507-3786 or send us an email at cusotmerservice@lmr.com for more info. - Jude H. - Social Media/Events Coordinator

I had this swap done in my '89 notchback, definitely worth it! Most of the necessary parts for the swap came from LMR
i think you put the bearing retainer on wrong- off 90 degrees- small notch on inside goes up

Could I use the same trans mount and the starter from the automatic

@@latemodelrestoration great. Do I need a shorter input shaft with the bell housing and clutch link you sent? If yes, Do you sell that also?

@@latemodelrestoration yes I bought a 1997 v6 WC mustang t5 with original bell housing.
I bought a 70 or 80 model truck motor 302 for my foxbody im v8 swap would this t5 swap work it 93 foxbody
Yes. -Landan
@@latemodelrestoration thank you so much
What type of oil does t5 transmission use?
Refer to your owners manual for the correct fill capacity and fluid. -Landan
How different would it be for a Fox Body Thunderbird?

This is a terrific how-to video subject! 👍
Did you have to change the starter or the different tooth count?
I have a mustang gt 5.0 1990 what's the transmission too neat for my car
Saul, Please reach out to our customer service team and we will be happy to look into this one for you.
fly wheel is a waste if you haven't turned it. it has hot spots. all itll do is burn up the clutch if not turned.
nice
Would everything in this swap also apply to a TKO 500?
There are a couple different variables that can make this swap different when using the TKO 500. Give us a call at 1-866-507-3786 or send us an email at cusotmerservice@lmr.com for more info. - Jude H. - Social Media/Events Coordinator
I guess most things would be the same for a '94
