Dave,
Sounds good. I probably don't have the "optimum" T-5 because it doesn't have the .72 5th gears, but I think that mine will work fine with the 3.08 R&P. Thanks for your analysis.
I had hoped to not have to modify the transmission input shaft based on the tech article that was posted here describing the use of a Vega clutch hub. I am taking my T-5 to Nebraska for Christmas where my father-in-law is building the motor for me. We are going to work out the clearace issues while I am there. I had hoped to bring the motor home with me, but I have been waiting for nearly 2 months for the camshaft. My supplier is reputable, but he has had nearly 30 of the backordered from Iskendarian (sp?) and they keep getting told "Any day now". Oh, well. I don't have the frame done to put it all in yet, so I guess I am in no real hurry.
