I am planning on installing a T-5 in my 1966 coupe w/ a 302. What size fly wheel will I need for this? Any body have any other advice before I tear into it?

If its a 302, just look in any 87-93 Mustang magazine or parts supplier (www.mustangsunlimited.com , www.e-mustang.com)
It should be a stock piece
have a good one  ------------------

Make sure it's for the correct crank imbalance. Pre '82 were 28 oz and '82 and after are 50 oz.------------------

Ah thanks Steve!
I was assuming (always a bad thing haha) he had one from a later model 
So yeah, remember what Steve said too!  ------------------

Like Steve said, it will depend on which 302 you have. Either way you will need the 157 tooth. I've done three T-5 conversions and used the vintage bellhousings and spacer plates with original clutch linkage on all three with good results. You'll love the overdirve. I would suggest at least 3.50 rear gears, any thing less and you put a strain on a Carbed motor in overdrive.------------------
