Re: Hardest part of a 235 with a T-5 conversion

All I can say is off the beaten pull your own parts wrecking yards that don't have customers that take every T 5 that shows up on the lot. Sometimes reading between the lines on FB market place adds or Craigslist adds helps too.

That and know exactly what you are hunting for and How to ID it. This gives you the codes and how to read them. It's how I found out what my T-5 came out of originally. Mine is just going behind a mile Ford Flathead in a light car so being NWC isn't an issue.
