88 AOD to T5 Swap

I'm looking to swap my busted AOD for a T5.  I'm looking for a used T5 that comes with the flywheel, starter, pilot bearing, bellhousing and fork.  I may be interested in a used clutch as well.  I'll also be looking for pedals and a clutch CABLE.

you are probably going to want to buy a new pilot bearing and throw out bearing. shouldn't need a different starter unless yours is pooched.

You may want to wait to see how the other stuff pans out first.

I'm not sure how much it will cost to ship all of that.  I can't spend more than $800.  I would need a tranny from a 5.0 V8 engine.  Don't take this personally but I can't afford to get scammed.

I understand about the scam part.
I really need to get about $900 out of the kit to make all my money back and would take that but you would also have to pay shipping from Kansas City.

I may have found a very good deal on a T5 with bell houseing that I could pick up.  No shipping.  T5's are easy to sell on Ebay I would think.  Would you be interested in selling me everything else but the tranny?  And how much would you be looking for?

Your offer is tempting.  However if I were to have to spend a grand I would probably be better off doing so on a new car.  I'd call you but I'm at work.  What can you tell me about the transmission.  Is it used or rebuilt?  What kind of clutch cable do you have?
