Dumb question

[bakos24]

How do I know which Transmission I have. I have an 01 GT and wanted to get a new clutch(King Cobra clutch) for my x-mas gift but im not sure which one I have. Does it say it in the door panel? Id go out and look but my car is covered in this white stuff called snow. damn OH snow. thanks guys.

Your VIN will determine.
Also, what is your build date?

Does it grind when you shift to 2nd? If so I think I might know which one you have...

I know my build date was 8/01. Do you know when they started putting the different trannys in?

This isn't a dumb question, but there is a search function - use it!
OK, on the driver's side door post, there is a sticker called the VCL (Vehicle Certification Label). Under the heading "TR" a "K" will indicate you have the (11") TR-3650 - a "6" indicates the (10.5") T-45. The King Cobra is a 10.5" clutch.

ok, just ran outside and got my door open and I have the "k" Tr-3650. So now that I cant get the King Cobra Clutch. What one do you guys recomend for about the same price range. Or does ford a 11" clutch kit.

MY old T45 doesnt grind from 1st to 2nd. LOL.

SPEC is an option. Might not be everyone's pick, however.

Here's an even dumber answer...

If you have 3 pedals, it's a 5 speed. If you have 2 pedals, it's an automatic.

Yep, that's a dumb answer...

We've got both the T-45 (in the 01) and the TR-3650 in the 02...and, IMO, gimme 2 TR-3650s anyday. The T-45 is SO vague compared to the 3650...the 3650 is very precise and much stronger than the 45.
We replaced the 01's Spec2 (piece of crap) with a King Cobra and have been happy with it. I have yet to trash the 02's clutch, but I've read nothing but good things about the Centerforce dual friction setup...not the cheapest, but you don't want to do this again soon, do you?
Best of Luck!
