We got the engine and trasnmission out of a wrecked 1988 5.0 GT Mustang. We bought the crossmember for the trans at Moderndriveline.com, , The Transmission that I have is a "World Class T-5" I believe the difference from a regular T-5 and a "World Class T-5" is ...the "World Class T-5's" is stronger than the regular T-5. I remember reading the World class T5 was designed to live behind the mustang GT 5.0 fuel injected engine. Ford was having a lot of warranty problems with the original T5, world class T5 was designed to solve these problems, and is probably designed a little heavier than what was needed for the mustang. As I said in my last post it's a nice conversion, no cutting to the body just bolts right in. One last thing My engine is a 302 same block as the 289. So it will work for your 289. OH and I believe we bought the Cable for the clutch at Moderdriveline as well. We were going to go with a hydraulic clutch system but money was tight so we went with a stright cable system to the cluth, works nice, not hard to push at all.
