That's some real good improvising!!! Goes to show there's a whole lot more to Hot Rodding then buying a bunch of bolt ons!!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

I did find out the S10 was WC from 89 till 97 . Most likely the tail shafts should be close on quite a few.Last edited by bluestang67; 03-21-2007 at 03:32 PM.

Great info and pictures.
I've heard different stories on the swap but these are the first pictures I've seen.
I have a 63 Falcon I am dropping a 68 302 into soon, but haven't decided what tranny to use, an auto or standard. I have a 60's Ford galaxie 3 speed, but wanted something with overdrive and that T-5 setup may convince me to keep the fun in it with a stick shift.Dan
