What kind of noises?, be more descriptive, and when you say "new", do you mean "brand new out of the box?" or "different, new to you?"

I just installed a Rebuilt T5 into the 88 on tuesday. It should be back on the road tonight (just want to double check everything) and ill let you know if there are any strange noises comming from it. As long as its not as bad as the old one. It sounded like someone was doing roadwork only it was from under the car and only in 3rd.

It was actually blown when I got the car. More reason to make sure you can test drive a car. The previous owner neglected to tell us that and 5.0L T-5's are hard as hell to find here in Edmonton. But the new one is in and working good. There are no noises besides a little bit of whine from the gears but im assuming thats cause its brand new. Its also a bit notchy but other than that it works great.
