Hey guys, im a fox guy but i was throwing around the idea of putting a 96-98 cobra engine into my fox (toasted the old one) and was going to go with an auto for dragracing. Was wondering if the Auto Trans out of the 2003-2004 mach 1 would be a bolt up trans for this style of engine?

it should, the mod engines on the stangs use the same bell housings pattern

you could also use a c4 for all out drag with this adapter

ya not looking for ALL OUT drag lol, just something that is fast as *****; but still has street maners, kinda over the whole fast car and stick thing. I wana put it in drive and go haha

should have not probs bolting up a mach 1 auto to the cobra engine, good luck on your build

The tranny will bolt up fine to the engine.

But you will have other issues. You have to convert to hydroboost. You will also need the entire wiring harness and PCM. Dash removal for pedal modifications, and wiring swap, etc...The cross-member will be a little off too, but you can just make a custom one.

ya i know about that stuff. Not a complete noob to the car thing just the modular stuff.

i dont think you need the pcm though, ive seen a 5 speed go auto and an auto go 6speed and they both kept the same computer, just got it programed when at the dyno shop.

ya i know my fox computer was ok for going auto to manual

You can go auto to 6 speed PCM's with no problems, but to go 6 speed to auto is doable, but the computer wont shift the tranny for you. So you'll need a manual lock-up and shifter...kind of a pain in the d**k.
