I think I do have a Clark 250V or according to the warranty plate a clark 265V. Not sure which yet. It has a pto built into it. Came from a 1961 F600 mason dump truck.

Thanks for the reply. I am looking for a 251VO.

Its a medium duty 5 speed OD

Tranny code K 57-60’s. Would have to id on tranny because K tranny code could mean 5speed direct drive without overdrive.

Oh, maybe that is the direct drive you mentioned. These old ford truck transmission sure did come in a bewildering variety and the proper identification is not easy and yet it is essential.

Phillip

Here is mine.

Thanks for the info. Does it have any other numbers on the case? 251VO-9 or 251VO-17 are the two I am looking for.

K was the letter on your data plate for the transmission code. A “K” could also mean 5speed direct drive.

Yes it does. I will take a picture later on today and send it to you. It is not engraved or on a plate. It is just painted on with yellow paint in big block letters.

292 Y block. It was a beautiful engine. I sold it a couple of years ago. Hated to do it. Compression tests were good except down a little in only one cylinder and not all that bad in that one.

Phillip,

I put in a 312 in my 60 3/4 ton 4x4. I was looking to switch out the 4speed for the 5speed OD because its a direct bolt on.

So I checked and the case number 224716 was used by 250V and 251VO. I will have to look and see if there is more Id marks. Thanks for the reply.

Don

Phillip,

Thanks for the pic. From the ID it is a 5 speed direct drive. Darn. I was hoping it was an overdrive. I guess the search continues.

Thank you for taking the time to help me.

Don,

What was the reference you used to determine that the 224716 number was a 250V or 251VO?

So the case number 227416 can be either a 250V or 251VO for Y blocks and I found it Roadranger.com interchange pdf. The painted number on the cover id is from my ford parts manual 57-63 which indicated it was a 250V.

Get on the H.A.M.B. in the classifieds. There was one that was advertised a few yrs back & was never marked as Sold. There is another Clark 5 speed in there now but don't remember if it is what you're looking for, the 1st one was.
