Ok I have a 98 GT 5 speed. Its got the stock T45, my brother had a 03 mach 1 and offered me his back up trans for dirt cheap. I want it bad because mine is shot. the prob is the trans out of the mach 1 is a Tremic 3650 (correct me if Im wrong) since the pick up is diffrent can and or how can his trans work in my 98?

It will bolt right in if i'm not mistaken. If it was a T56 then you would have to modify things.

only problem is the 98 used a VSS sensor and the 03 mach uses a output shaft speed sensor.

I don't know everyone told me it won't work even a mustang performance shop. I just replaced mine with a TKO 500. Maybe you can ghetto rig it. Good luck.

I would check with a ford tech before purchasing/attempting to do anything. Just my 2 cents

My step dads a Ford tech and he said it should work. Just have to fab some stuff and rig it. IDK as long as it works I need atrans and Im broke so this better work. He said all I need is the yoke for the driveshaft, since its stronger.

ok so I just saw this on a mustang part site about my swap. This transmission will work for a 96-98 transmission mount the speedometer sensor has to be swapped out with the toner ring out of a 98 transmission. Also you have to rewire the reverse light.
