nope..00 is the t45, half way through 01 they switched to the tr3650

 

both trans are junk, but the 3650 is less junk

 

 

with a t45, it doesnt matter how much power you make, youre going to break it....ide say anything over 300rwhp and its doomed to a much shorter life

 

my car making 260rwhp broke mine, and jeffro went through a shit load of these things (may have been 3650s, but same shit)

 

if youre looking to make any more power than stock, you need to upgrade it

 

liberty makes built t45s that would drop right in, or you can go with a tko500/600 or a built t56...ive seen a few drag racers do a c4 auto swap also

 

 

heres some TKO 500/600 and some t45s

youre looking at right around 4200 for a faceplated tko600 which is what you would want for making that kind of power

 

or if you wanted a 6spd instead of a 5spd, a built t56 can be had for about the same price, maybe a hair more

also...i hope your friend realized what it takes to make that kind of power with a 2v....hes better off selling the car and buying an 03/04 cobra and building it....itll be cheaper for those goals...for a 2v to hit 800hp, hes going to need a fully built bottom end, ported TF heads, and a shit load of boost...he will have 15-20k wrapped up in the thing and still end up a little short...he can buy a cobra, put some better pistons in it, put on a huge KB supercharger, and crank it to 800 for about the same price, and he will have a stronger motor and stronger trans

700hp from a 2v? i think not. best bet it to get a cobra dropout, put much better internals in it, boost it, buy tko, rape shit.

 

in all seriousness, like tyler said, anything around/over 300ft lbs of torque is going to eat those trannies up. 3 t-45s in one summer and i was only at 298ft lbs of tq.

 

you might be ok with a t-56, but im not garaunteeing anything.

 

some common bolt ons include, gears, intake, chipped, underdrive pullies, larger throttlebody. unless you go boost, your going to be limited at around 260 wheel.

All of the t45s I know of have had problems. I know a couple guys making decent power through 3650s in mach1s. (nowhere near 700 though)

I also agree dumping that money in a 4.6 2v is stupid. Swap and and save the headache.

 

Thanks for the clarification Tyler. I couldn't remember if 00 or 01 was the change.

the synchros and shift forks were the issues in the t-45s.

 

inside of one of my old t-45s that broke a fork

Im not sure what he's doing,i suggested swapping a 03-04 cobra motor into it,but he said he got something better in store so i didnt question it to much.And i dont think he cares to much on the money side he's ok there.

 

 

if money's no worry, go to svtperformance and buy someone's cobra that has 800rwhp on it already---plenty are available on the site at any time. most of them have better pistons in the motor, a built solid rear, and upgraded clutch/input shaft for the transmission, and many are either big, big blower, or turbo.

 

sure, you can make 800rwhp with a 2valve mustang GT, just like you can strap a rocket to a piece of shit and make it go fast.

 

he will have to replace every single component of the driveline on the 2000 to make it work with even 500rwhp, let alone 800rwhp. your boy sounds like a 'dreamer'........or maybe just not too intelligent, or both.

its kinda like wanting 800hp out of a lt1 vette ... sure it can be done, but its not really the best option

 

 

 

Shit I did that with jus bolt ons 2 yrs ago. Lt1 ftw ( then it sits for 2 yrs)
