Physically yes it will fit within the space in the tunnel. If memory serves some of these transmissions (T-5?) are installed on their bellhousing at an angle, dont know what implications that might have.

The speedo gear will most likely need to be changed since it is a different trans than the one in your car - you almost certainly will need to shorten the driveshaft.

Will they work yes, will it last long maybe.

They have a low torque rating so low you couldn't get a 350 Camaro w/ the 5 speed only offered it with the 305. If you wanted the 350 you had to get the the 700R4.
