The T-U starter works just fine.

The flywheel is a little more problematic, but they are out there. For the clutch, use a Ford style 3 finger 11" pressure plate and 10-spline disc (if you use the Galaxy 4-speed). Those are commonly available. You'll have to figure out what to do with the clutch & linkage, but I am using a hydraulic setup so I don't have to mess with the Rube Goldberg type original linkage. There are other details like the pilot bearing, length of the input shaft and driveshaft.

All you need to do is bring your fat wallet. LOL Good luck.
