Bill, as the resident parts guru have you ever seen one of these?


I replaced the 361 FT engine in my 1975 F-350 Tow Truck with an early (66) 352.
This is the original bell housing from the 75. I've never seen a FE bellhousing with the "ears" for mounting like this one has. I checked it with my sons 61 Uni and it fits the crossmember for the 61 perfict. If these arn't to rare they would be a good way to put an FE in an early ford that used a Y-block. Just wondered..........................

 

Notice the FoMoCo ID number on the right lower side of the bell housing.

I can make out C4TA-7505-

But what's the following letter...C or G?

I need to know, because there are two different bellhousings for two different applications.

Ford ID number: C4TA-7505-C = Ford part number: C4TZ-7505-F

Ford ID number: C4TA-7505-G = Ford part number: C4TZ-7505-D

 

Looks like a G to me Bill.

 

C4TZ7505D =

1964/69 (B/C/N/T) F500/750 330/361 New Process 435 4 Speed Manual Transmission.

1964/69 (B/C/N) F500/800 330/361/391 Clark 5 Speed Model 250.

1970/78 (B/C/CT/LN500/800) F500/750 330/361/391 Warner T-19 4 speed / New Process 435 / Clark 280 5 speed.

 

Thanks Bill, you da man!

 

I know this is an old thread, but does any one know if that bell housing would bolt in place of my C5TZ 7505 C bellhousing? If it would, it would be simple for me to swap a 5 speed Clark into my '66 F250 4X4.

 

1965 F100/250 4WD, 1965/66 F350, 1966 F250 4WD use different bell housings than 1965/66 F100/250 2WD, 1966 F100 4WD, 1967/76 F100/350.

Engines in these 4WD's, F350's use the three point mounting system, as did all 1961/64's and 1964/78 FT engines.

1973/78 F350's made exclusively for U-haul have the 330 2V M/D FT engine, the only F350's to use it.

 

Correct. If the mounting points were the same, it would be a piece of cake.

What is that hump where the starter goes into for? Did the FT's use the same starter as FE's?

 

1963/76 3 hole starter (C3OZ-11002-C) same for FE's, 144/170 I-6's (except P100's). FT starters different part numbers, but use the same starter drive, armature, brushes.
