The T-5 fit underneath my Mav just fine. I've got it hooked to a '95 motor so I can't help you as far as hooking it to an older 302, but you will need fabrication as far as a crossmember goes. We've had the motor and tranny in for several test fits, but haven't come up with a crossmember yet. T-5 is definately the way to go though.
: Not really as much work as you might think. The T5 into an early Mustang is a popular upgrade and there ate aftermarket parts avaiable to mate a T5 to an older 302 and 289. Might need to fabricate a transmission mount and possibly bang or do a little cutting and weilding on the tranny tunnel but I am just not sure. It might fit with no problems. Anyway, any newer 5 or 6 speed trannys would require a computer and then you can get into headaches.
: I say go with the WC T5. good luck.
