The Borg Warner T-45 was introduced in 1996 when the Ford 4.6L Modular motor was released. These transmissions were only used behind 4.6L single and dual over head Mustangs from 1996 to 2001. TREMEC, in 2001, replaced the T-45 with the TR-3650 which is very similar in design.

Is the T-45 A good transmission?

It always shifts smooth, reliably, and feels great whether it’s driving around town or railing a 1-4 gear pull. I would not hesitate to put more power in front of it. Out of every car I’ve ever driven with a 3650 or T56 the T45 is the best shifting one IMO, it’s smoother and just flat out feels better.
