    Thought I might share this.

    Hey guys,

    I'm not one of the "marauder guys" but I am a panther enthusiast

    I have some minor performance work I did on my 01 CVPI back in October and after a month and a half of abuse my original transmission decided to take a crap on me. Oh well...


    This is my solution



    TR3650 from a 2004 mustang GT

    So two months later I have all the parts and I just got most of the work done. I thought you guys might enjoy some pics.

    Spec billet steel flywheel:



    Ram HDX clutch:



    All bolted up:



    Interior: I'll have a console worked out soon.



    Pedals:



    Pretty much all done:



    And the final result I have some little things to work out before spring

    I was under the impression from Reinhart that a 6spd swap should take no less then 8 months.

    Nice work sir!

    Nice work sir!


    It only takes DR that long cause he is putting 4000 miles on it for a test drive and rebuilding the front end with left over parts!

    OP

    Any write ups you have would be loved by me and I am sure others. I keep thinking about it ...

    You definitely have a gift. Keep up the good work and you will be very successful in life. Just out of curiosity, how do the pedals work out? I noticed that the accelerator pedal looked a lot like a brake pedal.

    Thanks man. I'm only 19. I hope to keep this stuff going.

    The pedals... The one on the right is the stock one. The one on the left is a hybrid mustang/panther assembly.

    The acellerator pedal is separate and stayed in the car. The brake pedal or brake/clutch pedal assembly are a whole other piece that I just swapped.

    Oh...duh on my part. I did notice your age in your sig and know that with what you're capable of now, you will only improve over the years. I can't wait to see future mods you do.
