Hi!...I have a 351W in a 1966 Mustang with a T-5 5 speed with stock clutch linkage. I bought Hooker super comp. conversion headers and they would NOT work with the stock linkage.(the z-bar fit,just would'nt move)I have shorty's on now and I'm losing lots of power-even with 2.5 exhaust and Flowmasters.I say modify the headers-NOT the linkage, for safety reasons. Any ideas???

Just curious, but how'd you go about getting the T-5 in there without modding the original clutch linkage?

Edit: Welcome to M&M as well, i'm sure someone here will be able to help you out with it.

Just a standard adapter kit on an early model scattershield. By the way,Bruce Couture at Modern Drivelines said a cable will not work with the Hooker headers,so that's not an option.
