The 04 Mach is also a 4R70W. All 96-04 modular mustangs received the 4R70W.

BC Automotive is a great company contact them and see whats up. They have modified valve bodies and TCs for reasonable price.

You might have the 4r75w...I think the 04 machs got them as an upgrade during that year. It's pretty much the same transmission with a few minor upgrades that allowed more torque capacity to be applied to them.



Also I know you didn't say anything about what stall to go with but if you are going to go with BC Automotive, Darrin will tell you what the proper stall to go with depending on what your plans are for the car? But for most N/A applications you are going to need something around a 3200-3700 stall. Anything lower is a waist!
