The T56 is going back in.
Its staying as a turbo 6 speed until someone buys the T56 conversion then Ill put it back to standard. At $5k Im not holding my breath.  Clutch and bellhousing is in now. Going to fit the starter than have some fun lifting a T56 above my head for a few hours. Hopefully I dont drop it this time.  I was never happy with my braided oil drain so decided to use a Ford Drain pipe to snake around the manifold. Ill cut the flange off and attach some 400 series rubber hose to the end and screw that into a speedflow fitting.

Probably, that's usually what happens.
 I got it in about an hour ago and my arms are still tired from lifting it up.  Nearly got the diff out. Should have it swapped before it gets dark. |

Haven't tried it yet and I think Christmas Day is going to slow me down.
The new exhaust studs I got are too long so that is a pita. Diff is pretty much in, just need to tighten the U bolt bolts and put the wheels back on. |

All fixed.
 I much prefer the LSD over the lokka.

The lack of clunkiness and waiting for the synchros in the box to line up before changing gears.
And its quiet. Quiet cars are good. |

Where have you moved the battery to Dan?

Yeah I've decided to keep it.
The battery is in the front passenger side corner of the tray in a battery box. I want to move it to inside the car once I figure out how to secure a bracket inside the cab. The storage area behind the seats cant be accessed from both sides of the floor which is a bit annoying. |
