It's a great swap and there are several threads on here about how to do it. Here's my thread Member lugnutz also has a lot of good T5 info on here.

This was the T5 setup in my 66 looked like - I did go with a chrome stick and the ol white cue ball, but I almost painted the stick black and patina'ed it up and and topped it with a black bakelite knob. So many trucks, so little time... Ha.
All new to me,this is my first Chevy truck and only had it for a little over a month. Driven it several times and the 3on three is cool but not for me, going to definitely check out the thread and the T5...thanks!
