You will likely need a pickup truck shifter like the old dogleg F-100 ones, will look and feel a bit goofy but they seem to work

With the pedal box I would use the Auto pedal box and see if u can find a rare spares shop that has one these kits or maybe someone online and fit it

This is something I've seen before, some heads the holes for the screw in studs is exposed to the intake ports, so it is possible if there is no thread sealer on the rocker studs that the engine could be sucking oil in around them, as far as setting valve lash goes there are some good videos about it, but it is something if you are not sure of its worthwhile having some else do it or show you how

Cheers Dean, apreciate 👍🍻💥

Thanks have sourced Xe hydraulic pedal box, should do the job 🤞

I had a throw out bearing on my t5 I think you have to machine the snout down to allow the bearing to sit over - I’m sure USA guys have done it 

Thanks to you both for the excellent feedback & now you alone could of saved me thousands & obviously made my wife happy & saved myself countless head in hands,  thinking "F" this.
Shall  I chime on in with my amateur hour input. 
The T5 did have a Z in it F4ZR,the flywheel tooth count differently  sounds familiar, the T5 had 300 lb of torque rating my motor 470 lb but some advice I got ther, was as long as I'm not doing massive burn outs or thrashing it changing down it would have been OK 🤔🙄 probably not 😭🤣.
My tri-y's kinda looked like heaps of clearance cause quite low (I'll add a photo )
At present just got rebuilt Fmx but just feel I want some form of overdrive, AOD transmission out of the question & on Trademe there's another Transmission Ford 6R80 6 speed that they've adapted to be bolt onto SBF.
Can't really afford latest Tremec TKX ,emailed place in USA for complete package in clutch etc, came to $8300 nzd if that's not including GST when lands in NZ.
Then the whole Hydraulic vs cable dilemma would arise again & obviously hydraulic is the way. 
Manual fun all day long but even just some form of something moving on from 3spd & suppose diff ratio comes into play also, which is 8" 3.23
All so added couple pic's of Ford 6R80
thanks again for the invaluable feedback 👍💯💥
