T-5 Transmission Reply #1 – September 09, 2007, 05:20:45 PM As far as I know, the only Fox Cougars to ever have a T-5 were XR-7's, which were 4 cylinders. Your car is an LS, which I assume has a 3.8 V6. If thats the case, good luck going to a T-5 -- I've yet to have seen it done in a 3.8. To answer your question though, I got a T-5 from a junkyard for $300 with shifter and clutch. Granted I use this junkyard all the time and I know the guy pretty well. Quote Selected

T-5 Transmission Reply #5 – September 09, 2007, 09:56:21 PM This should be in the Driveline forum.....You'll want to get a pedal assy from an 83-86 TC, 84-86 XR-7 or a Fox Mustang. Quote Selected
T-5 Transmission Reply #6 – September 09, 2007, 09:59:08 PM It's a fairly straight froward swap... You'll need pedals from a Mustang or '86-earlier TC/XR7... Don't use a 4cyl tranny as the input shaft is slightly longer(but works), its weak, and the gear ratios suck for a V8... Quote Selected
T-5 Transmission Reply #7 – September 10, 2007, 12:09:42 AM I want the Cougar Clutch Pedals and shifter basicly, and a v8 5.0L T-5 Trans made for the v8 I'm just wondering how much that would cost? Quote Selected

Since the '86 LS never came with a T-5 anyway, you might as well find a 5.0L Mustang donor car. Call a junkyard and ask, you could make out with $500 invested, you could have $1000 you just have to research. Quote Selected
