Hi all,

How do I identify my manual trasnmission? i.e. I want to find out if it is a stock T-5 or an aftermarket, like a TKO.

Thanks,
Paul

Trans ID #13-52-066-939

Where can I look this ID up to find out what it is?

Thanks,
Paul

The car was in the shop the past two days (alternator replaced) and I had the mechanic get this number, so I don't know. I will try to squeeze under the car this weekend and double-check.

Thanks,
Paul

if u dont wanna get under the car pop off the trim around the shifter and look down at the shifter itself where it bolts to the trans

4 bolts = t5

6bolts =tko500/600/3550. if the bolts are straignt then its either a 500/600. if the front two are closer then its a 3550
