I’ve been wondering about these t5 swaps. How much does a guy have to hack up the floorboard to make it work?
I have it in my head that the shifter moves rearward and almost into the seat but not sure where I got that idea.

This is where the shifter is in my 50. S10 T5 behind a 216, with no adapter spacer (T5 bolted directly to the 216 bell housing). As Jon mentioned, I also cut a small rectangular hole in the floor panel, and a smaller round hole in my rubber mat. I need to find a boot to install. Mine uses the stock S10 shifter with an ND GMC 4 speed stick welded to the S10 shift mechanism.
