how to tell a non W/C to a W/C T-5??

i did a search and came up with only one answer. That answer was that the RPO code is MK6? Is there any years which they changed to all W/C transmissions? Im looking to do the swap from a 700R4 to a T-5. I have one to get but would like to know what trans it is.

I believe all 88-92 F-bodies got the WC T5 transmission. I could be wrong, but I think I read that in the FAQ on TGO.

Look at the front countergear bearing; which id the round thing in the center of each pic, about 2" in diameter, partly covered by the clutch gear bearing retainer. You can see it with the trans still in the car actually.

The top pic is the 1st design, the bottom is the 2nd design.
