Had to cut about 20mm - 40mm to get the shifter to pop through. No panel beating in the trans tunnel was needed. I also modified the t5 crossmember to fit the tko. My kit cost me about 5k all up. I bought the box,Bellhousing and tail sharft second hand for about $3000. Clutch was around $2000 (You wont need one of these clutches most likely though) and i bought a shifter link kit from Mal Wood that bought the shifter back to the original position. I think that was around the $150 mark.

Cheers , the tko 600 is on eBay for $3000 from Sydney . I could just use my t5 bellhousinh and the the adaptor plate made up to reduce the length of the input shaft . If I went tko 500 I can keep my 10 spline clutch , you have the tko 600 which has the 26 spline input shaft ? . I'll be looking into one in the future . They seem like a easy conversion .
Im guessing yours is the ford version ? Whats the difference between ford and gm versions ?

I'd keep the cable, can a 26 spline clutch be used with cable ?
