What tranmission came in this Mustang?

[HVACGuy]

So I picked up an 87' 5.0 on here from a trader a week ago. Bought a Steeda short throw on my way home today. I got everything apart, and the bolt pattern wasn't what I was expecting... I was expecting it to be a T5 because that's what this year came with. I don't recognize this pattern at all. I haven't picked up a low profile jack yet, so I can't get under it to look for a tag (about 5-6" clearance under the car.) Has anyone seen this bolt pattern before? There are six on the bottom plate, and not in a linear pattern at all.

My best guess.
How many gears?

You can tell him I love their products. I just bought a full set of new lamps and a set of pedals too! I wanted to put the short throw on (have had them before on previous mustangs,) but alas, it wasn't meant to be today, lol.

I'd be tempted to roll the phone under the car and take a delay photo.

Thought about that... May give it a try, but I'm thinking I'd be real lucky catching a photo of the tag on it. Who knows...
If I do I'll post that too. Anything to help me figure it out!

haha... I haven't spoke with him in 4-5 years, their Florida location was a few hundred yards from my old company. (they built 3 of my mustangs)

I think the case shape would make it easier to at least rule some out.
