I say this as a buddy of mine did a swap in his 96GT and it’s got very, very expensive.
Second that. Cheaper if you can get a totalled 2011 or up gt and swap all the parts yourself. If paying someone then its gonna cost $$$. Buying a 2011 or up is a better option...BUT if the car is sentimental and the body style is what you want, then who cares how much it costs. I would go all out and get a T56 or magnum XL 6 speed to mate with the coyote and junk the T5. Its a weak transmission just like the T45. The T45 has very weak syncros if its power shifted and wont last long. T56 all the way !
