    I just got my new malwood clutch pedal! The first one, Cherielynn was great to work with to get this done. Will definitely be a lot easier to do 5 spd swaps now, everything under dash.

    I wish these guys a lot of success. Seems to have a lot of applications in the works. All hydraulic from what I looked at.

    I was impressed myself , as you know there's not much room down there on the firewall. Little extra money but I think its worth it for the simplicity .

    So I wonder if there's a difference between my '70 and a '71 in that area...

    You know I'm not sure, isn't your tunnel a little more narrow? Don't know about the pedals . Someone on here would know. Tkx fits in my 73 , close at the top by cross brace that holds crossmember . The back of the trans is 3.5 to 4 degrees down. So I'll be fine there.

    Yeah, tunnel is smaller. The shifter tube of the T5 hit the top of the tunnel. I split open the top and added sheetmetal. Used a modified stock crossmember so the trans is at the stock angle.

    Just ordered one of these clutch setups for a friend that's puting a T5 in his '66 Mustang. Estimated to arrive Wednesday. We'll see how it goes. I wish their website would have instructions on how to set the clearance for the throwout bearing.
