the 302 bellhousings i would think are all the same, one off of a 300 or 351W will work also. Flywheels should be the same i think. I am pretty sure the flywheels are engine specifiec, and either auto or man tranny.

That's good news. Is the 435 only come with the granny, or can you get a normal 4 speed version, like the muncie, which is another question, did muncie only make tranny's for the bowtie?

Cant you put a toploader in there, just like the mustang? Thats a bulletproof regular 4 speed w/o granny gear.

Now that would be sweet, but I think the toploaders use a different cltch set up, and yoke. I am looking for an easy swap, It would be nice if an early mustang tranny would work, I will have to do some more research as to whats available, I wonder if advanced adapters has anything for putting the m-21 rock crusher in there, that's a killer tranny.

The Ford 3-speed, NP235, and BW T-18 all use the same bellhousing and flywheel. I had all 3 on an old 66 F-100 w/ 390.
The only difference is usually in the clutches... specifically the tooth pattern.

yes, my mistake, but also available for the smallblocks. Got to thinking about input shafts, and with a different clutch it wouldn't matter, dumb question on my part. What about lentgh of trannys, and out put shafts, will the same driveshaft work with a np435 as with a 3 speed? Hey, while I am asking what about tranny mount, same mount?
