Hey guys.. I will once again say how much I love this forum. No shit talking just really nice experienced mustang guys. I owe you guys a lot and just want you to know that every time someone helps me with input and advice I am very thankful.

With that said.. I need some help. I'm picking up my clutch tommorrow and doing my tranny swap tommorrow night and if nec. finishing it saturday. I have never done a clutch but my buddy has and knows about lining it up and so forth. What I need help with is..

I'm putting a flywheel from a factory T-5 car in it because i'm afraid my SROD one is too small and probably needs to be replaced.. can someone please tell me the torque/lbs on the following? I was hoping someone might have it written down or saved somewhere on the web..

Torque/lbs of pressure required list:

Flywheel:
Clutch/pressure plate:
Bellhousing:
Tranny to bellhousing:

Thanks.. another question to ask the pros.. I don't have a lift so where putting the car on stands..

Can someone please tell me if its easier to bold the clutch to the flywheel and then the bellhousing and then the tranny or just do the bellhousing first to the tranny and bolt it up as one piece? Also.. with the flywheel coming off and a new one on is it possible to bolt up the clutch to the flywheel and then put the flywheel on assembled?

Thanks guys.. any input at all or questions that you can answer about this will be appreciated!
