I am working on the T-5 swap (52 F-3) and picked up a low mileage WC unit (1352-216) which appears to have the "Ford" bolt pattern which means that the Speedway Motors adapter kit won't work. I called their tech department and they do not offer their adapter in the "Ford" bolt pattern, only the "Chevy" pattern. Has anyone found a "Ford" bolt pattern adapter that will work with what I have or do I need to source another unit?
Thanks,

Looks like you've got some pretty good answers so far.

You must have committed the #1 cardinal sin on the HAMB, you didn't do an intro before posting your first post. They have an entire "intro" police force over there and they'll eat you alive. The absolute worse thing you could have done is make your first post about a rat rod.
The HAMB has a lot of asses but they're balanced with even more intelligent posters who can provide some very good information and help.

LOL, Want to get pounded? Go back and say its to go in your Rat Rod. 
they get so worked up over there when those two words get mentioned, it's fun to watch-sometimes.
We don't do that over here do we???? 
There are some @s5's there, but some really good people too. just like real life there are good and the bad, you just hope you attract the good not the bad, but that doesn't always happen and you might end up with bloody knuckles or or a black eye.
Edit: BobJ beat me too it, the Rat rod thing.. that and the intro thing, I think you got that done before the police got there, whew, close call!

I've been a member over there for quite a few years and never ran into any issues but i've heard/read a lot of bashing most of it is from abusing the forum and/or it's rules.. the mainboard can be sketchy and it's not organized at all..I'm a member of a mid 50's ford passenger car social group over there and there's nothing but love and help with that group.. Likewise with the people here at FTE..i'm glad to have stumbled across this forum.

I really thing the smart asses over there are guys that really don't know what they're doing most of the time. The real contributors care more about cars and helping people and I feel they don't waste their time bashing people.
I do like some of the humorous replies to some of the questions though. Not the long winded bashing but the one line replies.

I don't post much over there but I do a fair bit of reading and looking at pics.
the only time it really bugs me is when some of those idiots go out of their way to be a total dick to someone for no other reason than being a total dick.
There are some danged talented people over there though

It's usually the same small few that initiate the bashing, and then many others just jump on the bandwagon. If the small few didn't initiate the bashing, those same many others would have simply answered the question and moved on.
And like Johnnydevil55 said, in the social groups it gets even better. I'm in a handful, but the fairlane group is nothing but praise for one another..... even when most of those cars are deemed OT to the HAMB police.
