If you didn't already know, I am working on a Ford T5 conversion. Today I removed the bearing retainer from the T5 and took it, along with the JH release bearing, to the machine shop so they can shave a few thousandths off the outside of the tube so the JH release bearing will fit. Last week I purchased a clutch disc for a 1979-1983 Ford Mustang 4 cylinder SVO (at least that is what the parts guy told me) with a 5 speed and the disc is almost an exact match to the JH clutch disc. The only difference is the centerpiece fits my T5 transmission. All other dimensions are the same. I thought I would get the clutch operation worked out before I take the transmission in and have the adapter plate made. So far things are progressing smoothly. (Knock on wood) Will continue to photograph what I'm doing and keep people informed if interested.
