What ever the price of the transmission, clutch assembly, flywheel and pilot bearing, clutch linkage/ cable and pedal assembly from the bone yard. Might have to get a different driveshaft also. It could add up especially if you are talking race criteria.

man i did it to a 89 GT myself....i went to the bone yard took the pedal assembly..... out,, clutch cable,,turned the car over on its side and used all ....i mean all the same parts from the clutch and pressure plate back and the driveshaft (didnt want to take a chance ),the car only had 50,000 miles so all the parts were good ...i did buy a HURST COMP shifter.everything else i used i had to drill a hole through the fire wall for the cable....ALSO DONT FORGET TO INSTALL A PILOT BEARING .i did it all in a weekend,with a friends help,it cost me $1000.00 and the man said i could have anything i wanted from the transmission back to the rear end,so good luck..
