Hi
Im currently building a special with a 74 302, I want a tremec trans for my application & have been offered an 04 T5-5 from a modular,
Will it fit my motor with no mods?, it looks very similiar to a T3650 which I know wont fit, I cant find any info on late T5s hence my question alternatively theres a T56 but acceleration is what im after, how do you find driving a 6 speeder?
Thanks for any advice
Mark

As far as bolting up to a 302, the T-5 will be fine. However as far as going into a '74 that is something i dont know about.

Her is a list of T-5 conversion kits for 64-73.

If it was me doing this i would bolt the tranny to the motor and start doing some measuring to figure out what sort of kit might work, call the makers of the kits and see what they have to say and be prepaired to have to do some fabrication work of my own.

I have no doubt it could be done motor wise. But crossmember and body wise i would be ready to do some work to get something that works.

No trans from a mod motor will fit on a small block.If you want a t56 talk to http://www.moderndriveline.com/

I have the Tremec T5 that Summit and Jegs carries. It works perfect with my 302.

I have a T5 from a TVR on a adapter bellhousing, the problem is the shifter is in the wrong location, if I use the Mustang box that solves the problem but the T5 from later models doesnt come up in any searches, the seller says the bellhousing wont detach from his box which makes me think it a 3650, he has T56 boxes, which I am thinking are an easy option?? my concern is the gearing in my application, accceleration being the key

I think you are right, I just wanted some confirmation

Do you know if these are the current 5 speed box used from 04 onwards??

I'm not sure what your asking. Its a replacement transmission for fox body Mustang. Its made by Tremec not Borg Warner like the earlier ones.

This is the one I have. When I got it it didn't say Hurst Driveline Conversions. I don't know what that means. I'm also using a late model bell housing with Modern Driveline clutch cable.
