Gotta point this out for you Tony, but your going to need more then just the transmission. Your going to need the brake and clutch pedal setup, clutch, and flywheel for sure. Then you will probably need the clutch master cylinder along with the slave cylinder, throw in the manuel transmission ECU and SVT axles... I'm sure there will be something else here to. Not trying to discourage you man but the transmission is only one part of the swap. Make sure you know what your getting into before you start spending money, and on something that major set a budget and expect to spend another 50%.

I'd go buy a 5spd focus- cheaper in the long run.

Ya know how we found out it was the motor mount(S) at the last meeting? Well guess what I just found a recall for- "Vehicle noise: The right motor mount could break due to defective hardware resulting in noise, vibration, and possible driveshaft damage. Redesigned mounts were being installed under a recall. (2000)" Booyah, I think i'll just keep this car forever, by the way these recalls are goin seems like i might be able to.

You know, the focus was the most recalled car ever to date when it came out. Hopefully every time it breaks you can take it in for a recall and have it fixed.
