98 Mustang GT Transmission questions

[CaseyJ]

My 98 mustang GT won't catch first gear, I have too rev it up for it too begin moving. I took it too a shop and they told me it would be between $1200-$2000 to repair one part that's broken. I assumed buying a new transmission and replacing it would be a cheaper and better for the long run.

Could a regular GT 4.6L motor run on a Cobra transmission? Would this make a noticeable difference? And It is an automatic, would it be difficult too install a manual transmission? Any advice, answers, or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I guess no one wants to be the one to say that Cobras don't have automatics.

Are you really prepared to do a auto/manual swap? If so, tons of threads about this.

For a plug and play swap, stick to an automatic from near the same MY as the orininal. It also had to come from a V8
