RE: automatic trans
first question- what?? what and why?? the GT Automatic tranny is trash. Stick with your 5 speed and upgrade your clutch and other parts. In order to make an automatic fast you need $2,000+ in parts and labor sometimes in excess of $5,000. As for your question, yes. Your computer wont tell your transmission to shift because its programmed for a standard. To be honest, the cost of the swap isnt worth it. Youd be better off trading for an auto mustang if thats what you want

RE: automatic trans
The autos for mustangs are very strong. Nothing a torque converter and shift kit wouldn't help. I know of some people who dropped auto's into cobras and built those autos up to bulletproof standards.

RE: automatic trans
then if i was to build my trans does anyone know of a place in Il near chicago that will do it. the only reason i am asking about switching trans is becuase my car now when i floor it in 1st and put the clutch in to go to second it feels like the clutch is dragging anddoesnt go into gear but after about 2seconds it will go into gear. i have a centerforce clutch. i was told that it is my quad cable i need to put the bbk one in and adjust the clutch?

If this is really what you are trying to do i suggest you do not come back to this site..... I was just thinking you didnt enjoy your 5 speed and that was the only reason you wanted to trade.
