Is there a direct bolt in no rigging transmission for the Boss? Where to buy it? If my dealer does not get my transmission right I am considering just gutting this JUNK transmission and clutch.

You might have to put in a 4.11 to get the ratios back to what you're used to but that isn't needed with a SC engine.
if you go with the .62 version it's not that bad had that ratio set in my 96 cobra worked great. A gear swap is easy as well. But you were planning to go with a super charger right? Then the .50 Trans and stock gears would work out greatjeepinocala said:Sounds like alot to go through, right now I just want a bolt in no other changes transmssion.
so with 3.73's and a shift speed of say....8300 the .63 ratio box would be pretty nice in the boss. I think if I go with a T-56 XL I would run 4.30's out back like I did in the cobra when it was NA.908ssp said:I put the 6060 with the 2010 ratios in my SC car I like them a lot. The close ratios of the Boss can't quite be duplicated with an overdrive 5th.

Tremec also has a handy little transmission gear ratio, RPM, speed calculator that will allow you to find speed in gears at different RPM with different tire sizes and such.

I do not think the transmission cant handle the power I believe it shifts like crap.
NewBossowner said:I will be using it to ambush 1,000 HP Vipers and GT40's so all the gear I can get will help. Traction wont be the issue.

No offense but it sounds to me like you don't have much experience with high torque and HP cars. My buddies 07 has 650rwhp and you have to drive it like you're on ice all the time. One rash move and tires go up in smoke and he's running R compound 295 Nittos. He's running the close ratio T56 with a 3.55 rear gear. He also owns a 2012 Brembo car and there is no comparison the 5.0 motor needs the MT82 the SC motor doesn't and would be a complete waste. The time you spend shifting he would long gone.
