Can I use a Mustang T-5? Just the trans?

Did a search and can't find anything.

What are the differences?

The only thing I could think of was the # of splines and that the shifter would have a different angle maybe.

Is it possible to use a Mustang T-5? They are stronger and way easier to find used in good shape.

They're pretty much the same on the outside, except for a few details that are slightly different. Internally they're identical except for gear ratios; shaft diameter, gear strength, etc. is all identical.

Different BH bolt pattern; different clutch splines; different clutch gear length; different drive shaft splines; different length; different mount location; no torque arm mount; different shifter location.

Other than that, it's just about a bolt-in.

Well then< I guess I'll just get one and make the modifications.


NOT! More to it than meets the eye, I wish they did work though, it would be so much easier to find a good T-5.
