Better late than never....

No you cannot mate a t-45 to anything other than a Mod-motor (4.6 or 5.4L) Reason why is that the bellhousing that matches the mod motors is not removable from the transmission. The Bellhousing is also a essential part of the T-45's casing.

I own a t-45 and a t-5 as well as a 302 and 4.6L No mixing and matching was possible.
