Body/Appearance/Interior / TC hood
Ive got a turbo coupe hood on lockdown how do i duct it for my 5.0 can i reuse the airbox from the TC i dont think it will fit.  But i dont want the  hood if the scoops are useless my whole reasoning behind it is for the cooler charge temp and the ram air part of it.

Drivetrain Tech / New tranny
So my transmission started making this funny noise today so i freaked out and started calling around trying to find one.  well as it turns out since i work at napa i can get a brand new clutch and flywheel for $238 and change and that the guy i bought the car from has three t-5s and everything i will need to swap in a manual trans SWEET.  So i wanted to know is it possible to keep the hydraulic clutch from the TC and put it in the cougar any other thing i sould be aware of before i try this job i want to really do my homework here.  The interior stuff is moot right now i can make it look good later but i need it to go.
