If you bought a 'new' Mustang, then the trans is a T-45. No matter though as the T-5 & T-45 use the same shifter. Pro-5.0, Steeda Tri-Ax, B&M Ripper and UPR Blue Thunder are all good shifters. You just need to look at them all and decide which has the features you want.

You really should try each shifter out for yourself...on other peoples vehicles of course. My personal experience with the 5.0 shifter was that it was a tad too short on the stick and "clicky". I used the 5.0 on my LX for many years with no problems. After going modular, I went with the Steeda...I am also happy with it. Both are proven winners...

I bought the Pro-5.0, love it, stong & short shifts. Haven't missed third since I bought it 8 months ago, missed 5th while racing a '96 Lt1 Z at 115 mph, beat me once, beat him once(interstate racing).
