[Confused] The 3650 isn't a 6 speed.

Personally I wouldn't put a 3650 in. There are no aftermarket rebuild kits for it and the only place that I know of that can actually work on these and get parts is Ford. I've been down this road before when I blew up my 3650.

T-56 is a sweet tranny, in Vipers, Fbods, and the '03+ cobras.

that's the 6-speed, if it's $500 run and get it.

We've got a bunch of spare 3650's at work. I looked into swapping one into 91PONY's car. The bellhousings do NOT bolt up to a 302....not even close. Not to mention the difference in input shaft length & the different output shaft splines used. Although, simply getting a stock driveshaft with the tranny should be close enough to the length needed.
