I don't know where to look or go to start this project if anyone could help. please let me know. thanks.
Welcome to the board. I see you are in Springfield, Mo. I graduated in Gainesville, Mo. in the early 80s I used to cruise Kearney (spell). I belong to the Maverick Comet Group, a new club dedicated to our cars and we have some members in your area. We are having our first nationals July 19-21 in Elizabethtown, Ky. we would be glad to have you, and you might be able to convoy with some coming from Mo. Ward
As Frank stated, use the "Search" function. There are numerous threads covering several types of transmission swaps. Plenty of threads covering the T5 transmission swap that seems to be very popular. I have not posted much here but I do search the topics and read just about everything related to my Maverick and the modifications planned. Good Luck!
