RE: Not a T-85/86 |

Thanks Bob, I hope I didn't sound like a smart ass. I have a hunch that you've forgotten more than I'll ever know. A '56 w/427 is a dream car to me. Is your '57 still FE powered? Back to that tranny, Kevin was right I think about his observation of that long input shaft. I really think that trans is a '65 later small block app. Check the early, '49-'64, later, '65-up, bolt holes on the trans. Check the top load/access cover....FoMoCo T & C (Transmission & Chassis). Hey Bob I noticed that you replaced your T-10 with a top-loader. I have never had a T-10 with big or small block that could take the necessary (ab)use. Oh and you mentioned finding a floor shift conversion for a Borg Warner T-85? You're right, they're impossible to find new. BTW, remember how much lighter that T-10 piece was vs. the brute T-85? I never minded pulling a T-10 out while laying on a creeper and using my chest as a rest. Easy to press. I would never do that with a T-85. |
