Is there a differance in the 86-93 GT T5 and the 4cyl T5 tranny?

I need one to go into an 87 GT and found a good 4cyl T5, but need to know if it is the same or can handle the HP of the V8.


Thanks

It can probably handle the horsepower, but it wont bolt up either way. The input shafts are different sizes among other things.

I am not actually sure if the 4cyl t-5 would be able to withstand a 5.0L torque output, probably not for very long.
