Yes the SALEENS come with stock transmissions....In your case it is a Borg Warner T-45. Ford changed to a Tremec built T-45 in 98 but it's still a T-45....I shift my s281 @ 6400 and the T-45 doesn't like those high rpm's (no powershifting, that's almost impossible). If you're going to keep the car I recommend a Tremec 3550 or TKO....
