my buddys mom just pulled out a 4 speed from her fox and put in a t5. whats so different about that 4 speed and will it work in my 73... i want it for my 5.o swap if it will work. any insight will help.
id say its a t4 looks just like a t5 but the shifter has three bolts holding it on and no fifth gear not as strong I'm sure it will work in a stock type motor brad
sad to say this ive never heard of a t4... could it stand up to mild track and some bat outa hell driving?
define mild track use? had one in a 1979 mustang carbed turbo 4cyl it worked good but the shifter sucked it ran 14.80s burning the clutch all the time then i swapped in a t5 bolted up with no mods at all you can brake a cannon ball in a sand box if you "beat it like a bat out of hell" butt i think it will work if you don't have to much grunt in the bay brad
is a 5.0 ho efi bored 30 over with explorer heads to much:16suspect. i just want to go to the track twice a month and play with the other boys and their hondas.
you probly will brake it but it mite hold up if you run street tires and be like a old lady when shifting brad
Its the crappy trans with the internal linkage! why are you calling it by its platform name? we know its either a Capri or a Mustang!
I was thinking it was that German Trans, there was alway trouble with shifter and internal linkage! I use a Toploader.
Good rule of thumb on Ford 4 speeds: Iron trans = good Aluminum trans = bad That is very general, but true.
