      Better make sure your stopper is working before your starter! Don't want that thing to race off without you!

                    Trying to find a v8 trans. Hopefully I can still use the same driveshaft...

                      Sssooooo does it run or not.....? Can't you start it without having the proper transmission...?

                      Early models do it better.

                            That's what I said.

                              It's a t5, the only thing different on the v6 one is that the input shaft is longer, and there are more splines on the output shaft.
