Basic mods to the bellhousing if you get the ford spec (get the close ratio one) tko one. Shifter is 10mm different to T5.

I have some more pics if you need - these are from Brom.

Paul got me a new tko 600 with release bearing for not much money (bout $4k aus but was a while ago) I can mod your bellhousing if you need.







Need new spline on clutch and prop shaft obviously.
