Hey, guys. I have a few questions of my options as far as transmissions in a swap I'm doing.

I have a 2002 Mustang with a T-3650 5 speed trans. Now obviously that bellhousing won't match up to an LSX. And the bellhousing on a 3650 is part of the case, so I don't think there's a bellhousing I can get.

So I was wondering what my options were as far as trans/clutches. I want to keep it a manual, 5 or 6 speed, doesn't matter.

Can I keep the stock cable clutch setup with a t56 out of a Camaro/Firebird? Or do I need to swap to hydraulic?

Thanks in advance. Any help/advice is appreciated.

P.S.

Please don't recomend to use an auto. I know a built auto is better for drag racing, and while I will drag race this car, I'm going to be driving it as a weekend cruiser more than being on the strip. I'm willing to sacrifice consistency and a few tenths for a more fun driving experience while I'm running around town.

 

T56 or tko500/600 are pretty much the only options and you will need to convert to hydraulic.

 

Hmm that sucks.

What's involved in converting to hydraulic? Obviously the clutch cylinders, pedal...

There's no other options. I could have sworn I read somewhere that someone managed to keep a cable clutch with an LS swap Mustang.

 

Mcleod Racing just came out with a kit.

Or you could modify a turbo coupe pedal assembly and make your own hydraulic setup.
