3.0 in it now and I bought a 5.0 and t5 from a mustang for 200.00.how much further back will the shifter be from the stock location?also,if I go with pionts and carb set up and bypass the computer from all the stock 3.0 connections will I still have all my gauges?or would I be better off stayin with the 5.0 computer and wiring?

If you have a bench seat, your shifter will be real close to hitting the seat while in reverse. IF you put the engine as far back as you can.

If you are going with a carb you can still use your original guages if you hook them up.

You can put in electronic ignition without problems.

You can use your gauges regardless, just use the V6 sending units.
