Hi all,
long time lurker, first post! This place has been a great resource for wrenching on my (wife's) GT so first off, THANK YOU.
Here is my problem: my wife's car developed a bad misfire at 165k miles. While I was trying to track down the problem it showed itself with a loud "crunch" from within. It dropped a valve. So I assume I had a broken valve spring that I didn't find soon enough which lead to dropped valve. The engine is toast. Yesterday I located and purchased a low mileage engine and transmission from a 2007 GT. My wife's is a 2006 GT. I'd prefer to swap both engine & transmission due to the lower mileage.
So my question is: what are the chances of the '06 and '07 transmissions being 100% interchangeable? I understand internal components may change from year to year so I'm hoping somebody else has done this and/or might be able to offer some confidence that if I replace her '06 transmission with the '07 that I'm not going to run into problems.
Your help is much appreciated!
Thank you,
Nick
