Do we have the same wife?

Here is a picture of the exhaust that I made for it.

Excuse the smartass remarks by my wife. http://s301.photobucket.com/albums/nn59/bruin_d/?action=view&current=MOV05461.flv

I finally received my T5 with a flywheel and clutch/pressure plate. The flywheel that it came with doesn't fit around my crankshaft (ID is too small). I bought a flywheel for that fit the crank and now the bellhousing doesn't fit. Exactly what flywheel do I need?

With the correct flywheel (2 piece rear main), will the LT style clutch and pressure plate work? Also, I've been reading for a few hours now about the hydraulic setup. The way I am reading it is that everyone swaps clutch/pressure plate/hydraulics styles as a preference for more clutch selection. Is this true? Will the factory clutch/hydraulics work or not? I have read about an exhaust issue but haven't been able to find any pictures explaining how it is a clearance problem. I am going back and forth between T5 and T56 right now. I have EVERYTHING for the swap...except a tranny. Thanks in advance.

If I am looking at a 95 T56 transmission that will be bolted up to a Gen 1 SBC, do I need the computer or just the sensors? I guess what I really want to know is what does the "computer" do for the tranny? Thanks.

I figured it was something for emissions. Thanks.

I recently purchased a 78 280z with a 5-speed to use as a daily driver (my other vehicle is a 01 F-250 Turbo Diesel). I bought with a bad exhaust leak and the manifold and holes throughout the rest of the exhaust system. The first thing that I did was order a header and a complete exhaust system from MSA. I put the exhaust system on and love it. However, I have a little problem. I can't figure out what hose goes to the port on top of the throttle body. There was nothing on it when I bought the car and I can't find it anywhere in any of the manuals I bought. I took a picture of it and put a box around the piece I need help with. Let me know if anyone can help. http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn59/bruin_d/DSC04875-1.jpg
