I have a 1954 F800 that came with a 5 speed heavy duty trans. I would like to use this trans behind a 460. Does anyone know if a late model bellhousing from a medium duty Ford truck with a 429 gas engine will accept this older trans? Any other ideas?
Don't know the answer, but here is a page from my 56 shop manual that says in 56, there were two HD 5 speeds, one with OD and one with direct:
5-Speed Heavy Duty Overdrive 1st gear(6.06) 2nd gear (3.50) 3rd gear (1.80) 4th gear (1.00) and 5th gear OD (.799), rev (6.00)
