T5 Swap, more questions to keep you all busy!

Does anybody have a walkthrough for this? I took the C4 apart a couple days ago to see what kind of work it needed, and it's pretty much fried.  I figure if swapping in a T5 is comparable to buying a new transmission...I might just do that.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
