Ford 5.0 swap into a Bronzit. Update: Now running, VIDEO ADDED.

Good call!

That's fine if it's awhile, not sure if you seen my build but I'm a ways from the point still haha.

How could I not see that build thread! It is what I would love to do once I can afford a second car. Small business hasn't grown enough yet to allow extra toys lol.

I'll check it out on the ground. Honestly though any rubbing worries me being a aluminum driveshaft.

Mine hits on the stands but is fine on the ground (worn subframe mounts) drop it down and check it again to be sure

Will do, it may be a while though.

Cool, could you snap some pictures so I know what I'm getting into??

I think it's small enough, but the diff sits too high in the opening and the flange that holds the u-joint looks like it will hit when bolted it. I have to drop the diff to install it anyway so I'll figure something out.

Tried to test fit the driveshaft, I'm going to have to do something about the area where it goes through the subframe.

Although I might get away with spacing the diff down about 1/4-1/2 inch. I will fit this driveshaft in there one way or another. The length is now perfect.

Is the diameter to large for the opening in the subframe?

I DEMAND VIDEO FOOTAGE!!! :hitler:

lol soon!

Advance will have my slave cylinder at 3. So now I must focus on getting the 5.3 into the Mustang for the day. His drivetrain is payment for his swap, so It would be kinda messed up for me to finish mine first lol!

Here ya go look down the page you see the hydralic conversion mount think it was listed at $76

Emailed him about a generic t5 kit(slave slave mount pushrod and line) we'll see what he says.he has early mustang kits listed but hopefully he can get us setup with something without the fancy ofset pushrod and mc stuff.

Also i left a link on the 5.0 swap faq i did for the wilwood pedal setup that mounts at stock location. It'll make the entire thing like $700 or something with the slave and pedals but it'll all bolt in and there will be no jerry rig stuff goin on. I know one the distributor is replaced along with some chassis bushings this is the next thing ill be looking at buying.

Theres an actual kit for $70.
