The wiring harness is 03 Cobra specific. I would double check
the 3650 harness. I am almost sure they are very close in design though. Enjoy.

I didn't think they were a direct swap for the 96+? I guess your ABS is long gone?

Call Darrin at BC-automotive.com. He did an article in Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords on converting my Bullitt from a 5sp to a 4R70W about a year ago. Lopped off almost .7 from my ET with that conversion. Since then I've installed a 4V and with the shifter in "Drive" and with the EEC completely controlling the shifting and lockup, the car is now running 9s with just under 700RWHP. The original poster used a Lentech tranny with an Open converter. You can go with a lock-up converter with Darrin's conversion which makes the car MUCH more streetable and has a huge advantage at the track too on the big end. Mine's trapping 139mph currently. Open converters soak-up HP. I started a thread with my recent escapades with the 4V with some additional details on the car here... http://www.mach1registry.org/forums/...ad.php?t=83994

Re: How to change your 5 speed to an automatic
Figure I might as well ask.
Can I expect the same type of performance if I used a stock Mach 1 with an automatic trans as I would a stock 5 spd Mach 1 converted to an automatic? |

I believe SVT has never produced an Automatic Cobra. I can't be positive for years 94/95, but I am pretty sure. I am however, prositive that they have not produced one from 96 and up. No auto 4.6 4V Cobra

Funny this came up. I was wondering how hard it would be to do this to a 97 cobra convertible. Total $? What about labor?
Switch for overdrive to replace coin holder? The OD switch should be on the side of the shift handle.

Honestly though, if I had to do it all over, I would not bother with the ABS stuff. It's a foo foo feature that just costs extra money to make work. And the **** ring gets in the way if a stud gets spinned in the axle.

Add all of the parts above, along with:
-Lentech Strip Terminator 4R70W ($2595) -9.5" 3200 non-locking converter ($595) -35 spline input shaft and stage 2 drum ($399) -Shipping ($175) I sold the T-56 for about $2000, and some other goodies that were associated with the manual tranny. That helped with the cost. Labor is a good weekend. Like any "larger than bolt on" job, the most difficult part is having all the right parts on hand, and having someone around to go on a part run. Getting all the parts on hand is key, that shortens labor. That is why I created this write-up and posted this up. To save time and aggrevation for anyone who chooses to do this.

no autos in cobras? really......Can you tell I dont' know THAT much about them...duh.
Now why did they offer the mach with an auto, but not a cobra? I could have sworn I have seen listings on dealers websites with cobras having an auto......ok that is it I am going crazy...... It is especially wierd because there is a girl that has an 04 cobra, brand new no plates, around here and I could have sworn it was an auto.....tall tale signs....smooth shift, no delay between gears, breaking until light turns green.....man am I lost....no offense to the women that come here, but this girl looks like she can barely drive an SUV....you'd have to see her. |

There are a couple of women that I know who can shift smoother than what I do normally. So the girl could know how to handle a stick, or she/her parents have to much money and had it converted for her to ba able to drive.

I'm pretty sure I have seen a 4V auto before. Last year would have been 98.
