Is it a NA or Turbo one as there are 2 different versions ?

The turbo/v8 version would be worth more

6 speed manual, mmmmmm, good box big money.

T-5 manuals second hand (no rebuild) go for $1500 for the N/A box.

Add an extra gear and the fact that its near new, big money item, I'd be asking for $4000 to start with more maybe.

How much are they from Ford.

Hiddeous and I just fitted a 6 speed manual to xr06t's BA 5 speed car yesterday.

No major problems, you just need the complete trans with cross member etc., shifter, yoke and some additional wiring for the reverse inhibitor, and it will all bolt in.

We spent about 6 hours doing the job.

Is there really a difference in the turbo/v8 6 speed manual to n/a.

I don't think ford would design two specs of gearbox's strength wise when it would cost same to make unless they choose better quality material or had strenghtening done to components.

They are not going to tool up for two different versions.

The only difference I have heard of is that Turbo gets different gearing to v8, don't know about the n/a.

I have heard in the past of no difference between models but they have had different gearing between v8 & 6.

The gtho received a larger imput shaft (bullnose toploader) which was a gearbox already designed and made to suit the Boss 429 Mustangs and big block F trucks.

Things have changed alot since the GTHO days and maybe they do design and manufacture gearbox's of different power ratings.

That's my opinion and I may be wrong would be good to know answers to this.

I may be interested in that box if you do sell, PM me details when you decide on price and if you are selling.

I will also need what ever to do change from 5sp to 6sp.
