thanks for all the info guys. we're still looking for a tranny. i'm actually heading out towards pittsburgh for work and won't be back till friday night. hopefully he'll find something by then. i saw that there are a couple used trannies in the classifieds but they all seem to need some rebuilding work. i want to try to avoid that due to my money situation. anyway, again to all, thanks

well my mechanic found a tranny for me. supposedly in good condition. he quoted me a final price (including labor) of $1600. does that sound about right? also, when the tranny arives (comming from Michigan) is there anything i should suggest he look at (he's a good mechanic but has never worked on a mtx-75 or many tours for that matter) before he puts the tranny in? and no, like i said before, i don't have the money to upgrade the tranny

...from the same engine...
Any Duratec MTX-75 = Any Duratec MTX-75
The Zetec and Duratec have different bellhousings.
The Zetec and Duratec also have different length input shafts.

Once you've got it installed, fill it with the tranny cocktail mix or use Chrysler ATF oil.
If you use the Chrysler ATF Oil, you won't need to add the friction modifier we use in the cocktail mix,
since Chrysler already adds a fair amount of it to the ATF Oil already.
Good Luck !
