Well things are starting to come together with my new 235 and T5.

This is going in my 47 1st 1 ton. I decided to keep the original 5.14 rear end as the T5 has a .63 o/d which will keep me in the 2000 rpm range at 65 mph.

I still have to figure out the mount for the emergency brake but otherwise it's going in the truck soon.

That looks great, nicely detailed, even the trany looks like you put detail work in to it. I just put a T-5 into my 54, but nothing as clean as yours.
