I have done it. World class or not has no bearing on the tail shaft. Out put length is the same. Speedo end must be replaced and speedo drive gear need to be adjusted.The s10 has a different shift rod and offset lever. These are just part swaps. The speedo drive gear is the only problem. The gear fits too loosely on the output shaft so it must be shimmed in its new postion. Yoke is the same, Ford. Shifter is different for other T5s. S10 came with either an electric or cable speedo drive. Make sure to get the cable model. Housing is a straight bolt up. Changing overdrive ratios is a whole nother subject. I used a new T5z box with the s10 housing
