I have a 292 v8 , can anyone tell me what other size engines have the same transmission bolt pattern

 

anyone know what all engines have the same bolt patern as the 292 v8 ?

 

Welcome to FTE - someone important should be along shortly to officially roll out the red carpet. Lots of information passes back and forth here - some of it you can even believe...........

There's a whole engine section just a little farther down the page. AND a forum just for Y block engines. I believe the quick answer to your question would be the 239
OHV, 272, 292 and the 312.

I won't bother posting on your other question - a little farther down the main page there's a whole forum devoted to transmissions and the guys there can tell you what trannys will bolt up and which need adapters to make them work.

 

The Y blocks use their own bell housing bolt paddern so you can only use a transmission from a y block. Auto and standard transmissions were made for them so you should be able to find what you are looking for. Also their are adapters you can use to use a c4 and maybe soon a aod. Also be aware that the rear motor mounts are made on the bell housing for the trucks and were not on the cars.

 

Are the 4 transmission mounting bolts(on a standard) in a different pattern from other Ford engines(302) or is it just the bellhousing bolt pattern that is different?

 

Welcome to the forum Jon. When you get a few minutes, read the sticky threads at the top of the forum and then set up your gallery. We all love pictures of project trucks.

The engine forums are a good place to get info on transmission adapters, although we have a few experts here as well.

The 4 transmission mounting bolts from ford and other brand like jeep may bolt up, I don't know witch ones, But the clutch spline and input shaft may or may not be different lenth. Maybe someone else that knows better can add to this.

 

so do they make a bell housing that will bolt to a 460 and also fit the old 4sp tranny ?

 

You can do a search to find similar threads. The bellhousing bolt pattern is shared with the other y-block, the Lincoln and heavy truck engine - 317, 368 and similar. Not a common engine.

The transmission to bellhousing bolt patterns for standard transmissions have two patterns; a narrow one, and a wide one. The narrow one is found on 3sp transmissions. The wide pattern is used with the T18/T98 with granny low.

For the narrow pattern, there are adapters to mate certain T5 transmissions, and some Top-loader transmissions will fit the narrow pattern bellhousing.

Your profile says you have a 51 F-350? Is that a 51 F3 or a 53-up F-350 or am I confused?

 

The newer series of Ford trucks in the 80`s came with 460`s and 4 or 5 speed transmissions so you maybe able to find a combo to work. A 5 speed would be nicer with an overdrive to save revs and maybe even some fuel. I would like to have a 5 speed for my 71 F350/390, maybe some day.
