The tranny will bolt right in from what i have been told the only thing u change is the harness on the tranny to your 05 harness. I have 2 trannys from an 06 and an 07 I'm gonna toss in my 05 when it really starts limping easily. The 6 speeds from the factory are a bit thougher then the 05s and can handle a bit more power before slipping. As stated above you will only have the 5 speed with out the suncoast TCM and valve body. sure would be nice having a 6 speed but 1600 is a lot for an extra gear is quite a bit of coin lol
