94Pro-5.0 said:
i am currently looking to put a new tranny in my 94. the t-5's just arent cutting it. i was wondering what the hp rating on a t-45 is out of a 96-99 cobra. i have seen a couple for sale for reasonable prices and was wondering if they are worth buying. i'm sure the bellhousing has to be changed, but is there anything else i would have to do to make the swap?
the tq rating is like 300lb/ft, and like you said, the bellhousing has to be changed, but you can't because in the t45, the bellhousing is part of the transmision, is like a front cover, and as far as i know, no one makes a bellhousing for a t45 that will fit a windsor engine like the 5.0..
here is a pic of my t45 so you can get an idea...
if you take out the bellhousing, what you'll see is this...
