i heard it depends out the input and output shaft of the 3650. Check on what yours is because they changed in 05. I heard the most reliable tranny is the tko series 500, 600 depending on your power. Another upgrade can be the t-56 with a 26spline upgrade. Im pretty sure if you go with a t56 you will need a different and shorter driveshaft.

+1, might want to check out the shafts and check to see if the tranny mounts up the same.
also the Cobra T45 was beefier than the GT T45.

If somebody GAVE you a 3650 just throw that in but if there's no current problems with the T-45 why even switch it out? A tranny doesn't care how many miles it has if it aint broke don't fix it!
