Mac,
The first thing you need to do is to get a tail shaft housing from the S-10
variant of the T-5. This will locate the shifter about 8 inches behind the stock
4 speed location. The other T-5 variants will locate your shifter somewhere in
the bench seat. I can forward my previous post on the specifics of installing
one if you'd like.
