I have a 1995 mustang gt with the aeod tranny I am looking at converting it to a standard. The problem that I am having is that when I try to order one though Summit it eliminates the tremec T5 when i put in 95. Does anyone know why this happens. I was told that the T5 is not strong enough for the 95 gt but that doesnt make sence because it was the standard operating equipment that came in that year. What should I do to? If anyone has any parts that they are looking to get rid of to help me out let me know. Well I guess I am going to have a aeod tranny to get rid of to, it does need some work done to it. The tranny is locking into gear before it is actually all the way in gear.

are you looking to by a brand new tranny? Whats your mods, caus i know you can get a stock rebuild one for 750 all day long, dont know if it can handle your HP but if your stock then it should be fine?
I would check www.corral.net for parts, they have a great classified section

I really dont have any mods to speak of. underdrive pulleys, flowmaster 40 series cat back system 2.5 inch, cold air intake, bbk shorty headers. and thats pretty much it. although I want to eventually want to put a 351 in the car that may or may not come true. as far as new or used I was thinking of going new just to get the warranty. I was thinking about gettting that cobra tranny that came in that years cobra I heard that it is much stronger. Again I am not sure what to do that is why I am asking on here I really am lost

It's probably because Summit doesn't stock the 94 and up T5. The more popular 93 and down T5 is a bit different. I think it's the length of the input shaft.
I'd use a T5 if it was already in there and continue using it until it broke but if you are going through the trouble of installing. Just step up and get a TKO500 and never look back.
The T5 is "just enough" in terms of durability. I'm sure many hardcore T5's users will tell you how they have or know of one that's not broken but fact is many users have broken them. If I was to rate a transmission and every 2nd person broke one. I'd consider it junk.

If you drive them right they will last. I would buy a good, cheap core, can pick those up for 100 bucks around here, and look in to a company called g-force. For 1200 bucks you can get that tranny pretty much bullit proof. SO buy the time you weight the options on a HD tranny and a rebuild g-force tranny that can take some heat, there practically the samae price. WHat im trying to say is shop around you can usally find some awesome deals if you know were to find them!!
