No t5 has provisions for a hydraulic clutch, it all depends on the Bellhousing on which the slave cylinder mounts, unfortunately you can't re-use your 235 Bellhousing with the 292 block since they have different bolt patterns. There is a few options. 1: find a 60-62 Bellhousing with a v8/230/250/292 bolt pattern since it has a slave cylinder for a hydraulic clutch. 2: find a nv3500 5spd trans since they have a integrated Bellhousing with a slave cylinder for a hydraulic clutch. 3: switch to an automatic transmission.
