will a saleen transmission fit my 96?

[drop92]

i just blew my transmission on my 96 cobra! can a transmission from a 99 saleen work on my cobra? i know the clutch is probally different, but will the trans bolt right on with my crossmember, or do i have to modify anything?

Most Saleen transmissions are no different from any other stock GT trans. If the car is a 99, it should be the same T45 you already have in your 96.

someone said that gt t45's and cobra t45's are different.... not sure why, but i was told i can not use a T45 from a GT...

I'm pretty sure the transmissions are the same, but maybe the gearing could be different, but I doubt it? I know what is definitely different is the flywheel. The GT uses a 6 bolt flywheel, while your Cobra uses an 8 bolt flywheel.

they are the exact same. the 99 has an electric sending unit for the speedo, but you can swap yours out
