The T45 transmission will not fit a 3.8L or a 5.0L, it will only fit a mod motor (4.6L, 5.4L).
You need a T5 for your conversion and it needs to stay within your year range, 94-98 and 99-04. The reason behind that is 94-98 used a mechanical speedo pickup and 99-04 used an electronic pickup.
If you are thinking of swapping the trans in hopes of completing part of your swap then you need to look at a GT spec, trans. The FRPP HD T5 is a great trans but the input shaft will be a hair short (5/16" I think)
You have several options for a transmission.
Now there are adapter kits out there to use a T56 on a 5.0L from D&D Performance in case thats something that you want to do.
