How do I identify my manual trasnmission?

Hi all,

How do I identify my manual trasnmission? i.e. I want to find out if it is a stock T-5 or an aftermarket, like a TKO.

Thanks,
Paul

check to see if the tin metal tag bolted to the tail housing is in place and post the numbers off it. below is a pic. of my tko 500 with tag outlined in red.

Trans ID #13-52-066-939

Where can I look this ID up to find out what it is?

Thanks,
Paul

is that the number off the metal tag? or off the side of the tranny?

The car was in the shop the past two days (alternator replaced) and I had the mechanic get this number, so I don't know. I will try to squeeze under the car this weekend and double-check.

Thanks,
Paul

if u dont wanna get under the car pop off the trim around the shifter and look down at the shifter itself where it bolts to the trans

4 bolts = t5

6bolts =tko500/600/3550. if the bolts are straignt then its either a 500/600. if the front two are closer then its a 3550
