Not soon enough, Bob. About 3.5 months to go. No matter what though, the cover comes off and I'm leaving for Charlotte, NC on April 13th for the grand opening of The Mustang Owner's Museum (founding member) and 55th anniversary celebration.Warmer weather will be here soon enough, Smooth. So keep that photo at the ready. I can well imagine how much you want to get that bad boy back on the street.

Too late. It's already built.Smooth, I beg of you to make sure the museum is NOT built over any sink holes LMAO!!!!!
Being in the founders club just means I've spent more money than I should have!Smooth, that trip to the new Museum, and cool that you're a founding member. You will, of course, take photos!
What's your set up? And why are you swapping?Received my adjustable pivot ball in the mail. I'll be pulling the trans in the next week or so to swap the stock one for it. I'm really trying to keep from swapping the headers I have in the garage at the same time.

I have the RXT and an unknown flywheel. The PO didn't swap out the pivot balls when he installed the RXT so the clutch fork is push back against the trans. There's no freeplay in the fork. So I'm going to put in the adjustable pivot ball so I can get the needed freeplay in the fork. I'm mostly concerned with the clutch fingers having no room to move as the clutch wears. I'm sure I'm already missing a little bit of grip because of it. I'm planning on keeping the RXT though.
I can't remember if the normal T56 needs it or just magnum, but you need to clearance the front of the case and clutch fork. I'll try and find pictures but AED did a write up on it that ended up in a magazine years back. Oddly enough, the PO had the RXT installed at AED and it started slipping due to the fork hitting the face of the trans. Plenty of meat left on the discs.
4-5mm is what I found for how much to shorten the pivot ball. I went a little more "to be safe" and at first it seemed way low. Love it now.
I've done some research and everything I've seen shows the T-56 is good. Only the Magnum needs clearancing. Thanks for the starting measurement. I'm fully expecting to pull the trans a couple times to get the measurements right. I don't have a stock clutch as a base.
