Auto for a Manual? T5, or anything?

[Gibson_Junk]

I got a automatic tranny. I believe FMX But I can verify if anyone is interested. Looking for a 4 speed. T5 or Any Manual tranny that will bolt to the 351C

Crap, I thought you had a 4 speed looking for an auto....

 

[Gibson_Junk]

Oh Nope I dont need a auto lol Just need to get rid of this auto because it wont fit on the 69 Mustang

 

[MotoArts]

Why won't it fit?

Why won't it fit?

The white area shows where it hits

Who told you that? 69 Mustangs came with FMX trans.

Something is not right about those engine mounts.

 

[Gibson_Junk]

Well, No one told me this.... Guess thats me assuming. But I pulled the 302 auto out of it. and they had make shift mounts for the tranny because it was hitting. As well as It was a manual to begin with so I figured I got back to manual. Maybe a t5 or a 4r70w or tremec 3550

I will put a picture of what they used to mount it Mike

Well I will snap a shot tomorrow of it thought I got a picture but guess not.

Basically to give you a general idea they bolted a metal extension on each side of the trannys mounts that lowered it a good 2 inchs

A 351c and a FMX will drop write in. Was the car a 6 cyl and they put a 302 in it? Those engine mounts look home maid to me. A 302 with a C4 should now way it the fire wall.:huh:

Does the car have 4 lug or 5?

 

[Gibson_Junk]

Yea the car originally had a 200 I6 in it manual. I beleive engine mounts are home main. And it is a 4 lug

 

[mach71351c]

Yup 4 lug 6 cyl car. You can swap the 5 lug front breaks from the other car.The rear axle from the 71-72 is to wide.


My brother has a 8 inch rear axle out off a 70 coupe that would roll rite in.

How much does he want for it? I'd have to see if I can get some money together

 

[mach71351c]

I will find out.

 

[Gibson_Junk]

Picked up 2 T-5 from guy for a steal of a deal lol 2 for 240. Referred to him by a friend and he gave me a deal. So I bought both and will rebuild or just sell on to help cover the cost of them. I test both out. He had them in mustangs before I got there and I drove them both. Smooth as butter. Got almost everything I need for the conversion now. 1 step closer to dropping in the motor

Sounds good, good luck with the install.
