while looking for a transmission, i ran into the t5, which has been used both with ford and chevy. How compatable are the models?

i have a 1996 mustang with a t5 transmission and am looking into a chevy engine for it. Chevy engines beat ford all day.

the engine is a 305 but will have a xram 350 crossfire intake and 350 headers, any possibility that this engine can be bolted to this tranny?

oh a stang, now that i don't know. check the bolts on your t5 bellhousing and see if it is the same as the motor.
