do 5.0 trannys fit??

[boxcarracer89]

I was gonna pick up an 84 mustang svo but it has a blown tranny, i was wondering if the trannys from the 5.0s fit on the svos?? I know they fit on the regular 4 cyl but i wasnt sure if the turboed 4s were different, thanks guys!!

Sorry guys I found it, they take t5s.

Actually you need either a special pilot bushing to put a 5.0 T5 behind a 2.3L, or you have to turn down the nose on the input shaft so that it will fit the stock pilot bearing. I don't know about the clutch situation there though.

Additionally, the 5.0 T5's .68 overdrive would be tough to live with behind a 2.3L. 2.3 T5's have a .81 overdrive.

Get what, the bushing?

I'm not sure who all makes it, I know that Rapido Group does...I was thinking there was another company but I'm not sure.

Stinger performance actually makes an adapter plate that will allow you to mate the larger bellhousing from a V8 to your motor. Then you'll have the benefit of a larger flywheel, (gotta buy theirs) clutch and what ever transmission your back pocket will allow.
