I found one in a 95 cougar with a 4.6 sohc will this one work?

Posted by: 98LSC32V

You want a 98+ 4r70w, don't bother with anything else.

Posted by: 32vmach

I know they are better I just don't have the funds till summer I need a tranny now I am going to use the cougar
(if it will fit) one till I can get one built. Will the cougar one fit? PLease help have to pull it in the morning.

Posted by: 98LSC32V

Yes the Cougar 4r70w will fit, what year is your Mark VIII?

Posted by: jamie97lsc

i have 3 of them you could take your pic, 100 bucks any of them all work fine were pulled from driving mark's but unless you want to drive to florida this weekend i dont think i'd be much help!!!

Thanks guys i have a 94 black/black leather with coil overs and that is it as far as I know bought it last week. I am going to get the cougar trans it has 91000 and he said I can get it for $100 plus core or $150 without I am going to keep my trans so I can build it as time and money allow.

Posted by: kustomizingkid

I would personally send that tranny in as a core. If you want to build anything to handle some abuse you will want to go witha 98+ tranny.

Are the cases different on the 98+ transmissions if not then I am going to use mine I plan on putting whole new guts in it. And for $50 I would rather keep mine it isn't slipping bad and is still usable if the one out of the cougar messes up. Thanks for all th info.

Posted by: 32vmach

My mark has 135646 I got it for $1700 cause the trans was slipping. He startedout at $3000 it also needs new suspension b ushings. I thought for $1700 it was alright.

Then main difference is a mechanical diode in the gear set. Think of it as a one way clutch.

Just for fun; http://www.tccoa.com/articles/tranny...on/index.shtml

I knew the internals were different Thats why I was going to just use the case. Thanks for the link it was helpful.

You can use older ones if you wan't from any t-bird, couger or even a vic I think.
They just have the older craper style accumulater pistons. if you get a trans from anything other then a mark make sure you use a TQ converter from a mark. the couger one wont work.

Posted by: kustomizingkid

The 98+ trannies are oeverall just better. All the internals have been improved. Most builders won't use anything older than a 96 case to do a performance build either, don't know why that is exactly.

Posted by: Markviiiedrea

plus the newer ones come with a deep sump pan to keep the tranny from starving it self

May have to swap solenoids from 94 trans to Cougar trans. Not sure but I would check it out. Save you from putting the old one back in if you burn up the Cougar trans.
