Question: Putting a 6 speed in an '03 Mach 1

Dec 31, 2003 4 Replies

I've got a 2003 Mach 1 with a 5 speed.



I note that the Cobras have a 6 speed.



Is it basically a bolt-in, seamless procedure to put a 6 speed in? Some trans bolt pattern? Drive shaft the same length? Electrical connections the same?



Please advise.


You should go to

and ask the question. Everyone one that site is a Mach 1 fanatic and many of them have done some extraordinary mods to their Machs. A friendly bunch who do their best to answer questions and make recommendations.

My guess is that it will bolt right up to the block, but might require a different driveshaft. My Mach is an auto, so I can't check it for you.

It might be a bolt in project, but my guess (without looking into it) is you would have to spend in the neighborhood of $2500.00 for the transmission first...

LR,

Like Mustang_66 said go to the Mach 1 Registry, go to the forums, and ask "Tomcat 427" he put a 6-speed in his car he can give you all the info you need.
