I just bought this 88 5.0 from a guy who converted it from an auto to a 5 speed. He told me he had issues with the bell housing being wrong, something about the length of the input shaft, and having to modify the driveshaft. I don't know the details, he didn't seem to know a whole hell of a lot. Anyways, the speedo wasn't working and 4th gear grinds. I know the synchro is the cause of the problem in 4th, but the speedo I didn't know. I jacked up the car, removed the speed sensor and to my shock found that there was NO gear inside the tranny on the end of the output shaft! I pulled the tranny ID tag and found "1352-260" on the tag. Its a damn 99 T5 and according to what I found, uses an electronic speed sensor.. This explains the lack of speedo function. I've been told its not possible to put the newer T5's in the fox's.. So my question here is what am I dealing with? Is it something I can fix? Should I be concerned? Should I toss it and get another tranny.
