RE: Not a T-85/86
By Mike McQuesten - 04/20/2001 12:34:01 PM; IP 206.193.0.122
This is just a reasonabe guess on that O.D. trans. It looks like a small block Ford produced Top Loader 3 speed w/O.D. Sixties Ford Pick-Ups that were rarely equipped with the overdrive/FE were still running the Borg Warner T-85. The BW T-85 is a tough gear box. Tougher than the T-10 by a long shot. That trans in the pic is not a T-85 nor a T-86. The T-86 was Borg Warner Produced and backed 6 bangers/292s etc. Not a tough trans. I've got three T-85s (yup, I like 'em) and one T-86 that will not be used. A friend had a '65 Galaxie w/289 and 3 spd/o.d. and the trans looked like that one,i.e., top loader and Ford made. It's a nice work horse trans for a small block. Better than the T-86 it replaced.
This thread, so far...
