    97 Cobra T45 Transmission -- Value?

    Just curious what everyone thought would be a good price to sell it for. It's from my 97 Cobra (T45 Tranny) with 76,000 on it. It has the 1st --> 2nd synchro shift problem that so many are plagued with but other than that, it works great. Any ideas on a good price? Thanks

    97 Cobra: T56 Ordered!

    Just ordered the T56 conversion kit for my '97 Cobra. I'm pretty excited and just thought I'd post here. I am also having an aluminum flywheel, SPEC clutch and 4.10s installed at the same time. Exhaust will be done this week. Grappler

    '97 Cobra Replacement Flywheel

    I've been doing some research to get a replacement flywheel for my car when I do a tranny swap and I think I am more confused now than when I started. It appears there are two different types available for the 97 4.6L engine. Is the '97 Cobra an 8 Bolt Crank? How would I check for myself and...

    D&D Performance T56 Conversion (97 Cobra)

    I'm also making a list of things to replace while the tranny is out. Don't want to miss something while the labor cost is already being paid. Your car is obviously newer but are you replacing other things such as U-Joints, etc?

    D&D Performance T56 Conversion (97 Cobra)

    That being said, I wonder why Partshopper has two different versions of the SPEC clutches, one for a 96-98 (SPEC-SF483) Cobra and one for a 99-03 (SPEC-SF873) Cobra. I'm now unsure which clutch to get for a '97 Cobra with the T56 Cobra transmission...

    D&D Performance T56 Conversion (97 Cobra)

    Great information, Sanchez. Sorry for all these noob questions. I am just starting to learn all this. On to my (hopefully) final newbie question for the day. :rlaugh: What is the difference in clutches based on? Is it based on the engine output or the transmission hookup. i.e. I have a 97...

    D&D Performance T56 Conversion (97 Cobra)

    Thanks, Sanchez. So, am I to assume that if I go with the Cobra T56 that I can use a 10 spline clutch? What clutch did you end up going with once you found out you needed a 26 spline clutch?

    D&D Performance T56 Conversion (97 Cobra)

    Quick question: Does D&D provide instructions for the conversion when you purchase a kit from them?

    TKO Question

    I believe you can pick the tranny up for a decent price here: http://www.ddperformance.com/ As far as the swap goes, I can't help you there. I have not done it and I plan to upgrade to the T56 in the near future as my T-45 is dieing as well. Good luck.

    Viper T56 shifter?

    Just curious what most are running on theirs. Is there a difference in shifters between the viper and cobra version? Is the Pro-5.0 Borg Warner T56 the correct one if I go with the Pro-5.0?

    T56 install in a 97 Cobra

    Thanks for all the GREAT information. Now, I just have to find a shop that will do it and that I feel comfortable with. I'm planning to just go with a SPEC Stage III clutch while they are doing the tranny to save the labor cost later. Will 4.30s fit without any modifications to the rear end...

    T56 install in a 97 Cobra

    Has anyone done this or have any information or good links to information? I am looking to upgrade the tranny since it needs replaced and I'm trying to find out if it is a direct bolt up or how many changes will be needed for the conversion. Thanks

    97 Cobra Tranny Synchro Problem?

    Thanks to you too. I plan to go ahead and upgrade / replace the tranny. I am now trying to find out the best route... It seems that most recommend going to the T56. I would like to upgrade to a 6-speed but I can't find any definitive information on how many changes are needed to do the...

    97 Cobra Tranny Synchro Problem?

    First your opinion... My tranny has started to grind when shifting to 2nd gear from 1st on hard launches. If I'm just tooling around slow, no issues. I'm assuming it's the synchro. Thoughts? OK, if it is a synchro, what route should I take, go ahead and spend the money and get a new...

    Has anyone tried the Flowmaster Super 40 mufflers on a 97 Cobra or similar? If so, are you happy with them? Any other suggestions for me? Thanks.
