Cobra T-56 in 94 GT

I believe D&D Performance and Kenny Brown(?) have swap kits for the T-56, since a special cross-member is requiered. Other than that it should fit no problem.

As for the 27 output shaft, if the tranny is a TKO, it will require a special clutch and u-joints to install.

F.Y.I., the link didn't work.

I dont believe you can use those as they are setup with a different speedo mechanism. I know ford makes a t-56 with a mechanical speedo setup for our and older cars. But assuming you work that out somehow, you will need to get a new yoke and shorten your existing DS or just get a new custom one made. You will need a trans crossmember also and a 5.0 to t-56 bell housing. If it doesnt come with a shifter you will need that too. Thats all the major stuff. THeres prolly bits and pieces I'm missing.

The link doesn't work, but why does aCobra one need built already?

Nevermind, I guess those cars are 5 years old now and have taken a serious beating. For some reason they seem newer to me.

I would pick up a Lakewood or Mcleod SFI Bellhousing made for a 5.0/Tremec trans combo, and I bet you could use a trans mount and crossmember from a 03-04 along with a 03/04 driveshaft. Might have to change the pinion flange with the 03/04 d/s....I'm pretty sure theirs is different. In my old 04 Cobra I put a solid 8.8 from a 94 GT in it and had to use the pinion flange off the IRS in order to use my stock driveshaft. Or you could probably get a custom one made for $400-500. I'm not sure what you'd do about the speedo....maybe a Speed-Cal would work? Just an idea. If you go with a 03-04 T56 though upgrade the stock 10 spline input shaft to a 26 while you have the opportunity. The 10 spline is prone to breaking with spirited driving. You'd have to get a 26 spline clutch setup, but that's no big deal and they're generally the same price as 10 spline setups.
