You would need an adapter plate. Ford never mated a T5 to a 3.0 for regular production. There is also no company (that I know of) that builds such an adapter. It would have to be custom made.

Yup, the 3.0 has a unique bell housing pattern. The M5OD R1 does not have a removable bell housing. The 3.0 M5OD is a fairly common trans. I have two empty housings in my garage. I have been looking for a while and have not been able to find a 4.0 housing.

Rebuilt? Lots of places... $$$$ though... I'd just go with a junkyard trans if I were you, or tear into it myself...
