    Default Escort flywheel with 5-speed set up

    If I used the escort flywheel with my T5 what TOB ,pressure plate and clutch disc should I use?

    I ran exact same setup for a few seasons, the mustang disc & pressure plate will bolt right up, use the ford 5spd. OEM TOB, BUT you will have to replace the stubby 2" clutch cable with a 1/4" x 2.5" long bolt, use this as an adjuster to set up the clutch to grab & release properly. Use fender washers on both ends & double nut the open end (lock washer in between) to keep it from coming loose. When I put it together for the first time, clutch would not release, short cable was a little too long. Hope this helps.

    My mustang clutch disc is 8.5 in. diameter and the escort disc is 7 7/8 in diameter. Will the larger mustang disc and pressure bolt up and work?

    Yes it did on mine, everything bolted right up. Escort flywheel/bolts & everything else was the mustang parts.
