Had it rebuilt in phoenix and it seems to be more rugged than it was, so I wish you good luck with yours.

how much did it cost you to get a c4? And would it be overkill to put one of these in a 01 gt with only the mods in my sig? I AM planning on F/I in the near future and a built bottom end too

it was $1900 but trans guy (local) dropped it to $1,750 becuase he took 3 1/2 months longer then it should have

got the trans, bell housing, trans cooler, dip stick, trans fittings, flexplate..i ended up buying the fan trans cooler and a lokar dip stick due to me having major issues with the trans mount one and said f it

trans alone with no bell built like this one is around $2,200ish online from what i have seen.

ya if you do 1/4 stuff the auto will help big time. assueming you put the right stall in a nd trans brake

someone on modularfords.com has a little kit he makes out of carbon fiber which moves the shifter where the cup holders are and has a carbon fiber plate gauge pod for where the stock shifter went. looks real nice.

but it looked to me in pics like the shifter would be to close for me (it was like right on your side) so i said f it and did what i did. i called idk how many junk yards to get any color auto ceneter console and couldent find one in a 99-04
