I know there was a member on this board that has done it in the past. make sure you talk to him, I know he had some problems with the speedo cable or some sort.

Boost til'bust was the person.
"only problem with car is that the speedo doesnt work...because of the stock 5 spd trans. it reads lower than you are actually going"
So i think he put the SVT engine with stock 5spd.

I thought the 6-speed wasn't as strong as the 5-speed? :iono:

really i would think that the svt tranny would be able to hack more power and in turn be a better tranny

The Getrag tranmission is reported not to be as strong at the MXT75 transmission. However, the internals for the SVT motor are much stronger than those found in a ZETEC
