Im about to install a short throw shifter and I dont know what tranny I have. I was told I have 1 of two different trannies and I need to know which I have if I can tell by looking. Can anyone help?

02 GT's have the Tremec TR-3650...

jdaniel

well you sure thats the only one?

Yes, your car positively has a 3650, unless of course it was previously swapped or is a factory freak. Ford switched from the T45 to the 3650 midway through 2001, so the later 2001 Mustangs and all Mustangs since have the 3650.

You are correct sir! 3650 frigging crappy 1-2nd grind[:@]

I never grind in first to second but every now and then, albeit somewhat rarely, I get a grind in second to third on a power shift and I heard thats not good at all. But I have the 3650, huh? Well now I know what to order.

Who's short throw are you installing?

jdaniel

Im not sure yet. I dont like the steeda Tri-Ax from the 03 cobra. What do you suggest? I dont want a tall shifter like that. Something that looks norman but is a short throw.

When I had my 2000 GT & when they switched midway through 2001 everyone on the boards were then saying it will be an improvement the 3650 over the T-45. Seems that maybe they were wrong from what I am reading now, what do you think. But I have the Mach 1 now 04 & I think the transmission does feel better especially going into reverse.

I went with the Pro 5.0 short throw. Gonna get it installed with the steeda timing adjuster, and 1 1/2 inch lowering springs in the week ahead. Cant wait.
