A: Mark, I just thought I'd mention the T5 you have is not likely to stand
long behind a V8 (indeed, they die often behind the 6 cyls) It is one of the
weaker W series. I used to have a Y series (from a 5.0L Ford) but if you
race, the Z series was the best bet below a real Tremec.

I'm using six Cylinder Clutch setup in mine. It's a 4.0L with AMC T-5.
It uses the V-8 bellhousing so, I'm thinking it would work on a V-8 car. the
only piece I made was the bracket that bolts to the bellhousing and the
pivot pin goes into. It only took me an hour to make it up with some angle
iron and a mig welder. Only thing to note is if your using a a stiff presure
plate the linkage may not hold up. Mine is running a a Jeep 10.9" clutch
setup with no problems yet.
