Kiesler Engineering offers everything you need.

Lakewood makes bellhousings also.

If you search some old threads you will find there are stock bellhousings that will work also.

Like that! I really wanted to do the TKO trans when I built mine but did not wanna deal with the hydraulic stuff. After seeing yours I wish I just tried it out and got a lil creative.

I talked to OJ the other day. The car is for sale as a roller. He said that if it doesn't sell, he might go turbo mod-motor eventually.

I see...I went from wanting to build a boosted mod-motor, to a single turbo 351W, and now wanting to do an LSx swap into my Mustang...next will be just to get a GM of some-sort.....LOL

I aquired another 1986 mustang vert and it WILL receive an ls1 with a single turbo. Just a budget street car cruiser.
