Technical - General / Re: T5 Gearbox
Last post by EdgarGreene - September 18, 2024, 09:54:32 PM
Hi, happy to help! The T5 gearboxes in the mid-1995 Falcon and the 1995 Mustang V6 are similar, but they may not be directly interchangeable due to differences in bellhousing patterns, gear ratios, and possibly input/output shafts. You'd need to confirm the specific specs of both gearboxes to see if they match up.By the way, if you're looking for something fun to do while you figure this out, check out this https://oshicasino.bet/ for some entertainment! If they don't line up perfectly, adapters might be available. It's definitely worth double-checking with a gearbox specialist to avoid any compatibility issues.

Some headers eg: Pacemaker will interfere with your power steering ram. I also have Advance Headers tri-y, ceramic coated. Fit well with my power rack & pinion.

Hi Peter,

I have a LHD 66 coupe, reasonably stock 289, auto, power steering. I used Advance Headers - http://www.advanceheaders.com.au/products/headers-extractors/ford/v8/

The headers bolted straight up, no need for a drop bracket for the power steering. I can get to the plugs quite easily. The clearance to the shock tower is about a finger but the headers have never rubbed.

Cookies Custom Pipes And Exhausts are at Wynnum

The Muffler Shop, Cleveland - I used them years ago when they were at Stones Corner.

Cheers

Andrew

Hi Peter,
I have a '64 coupe with a standard 289.
A few years ago I fitted Hedman Headers long tubes (88308), no issue with fitting; I'm very happy with the product. Car is LHD, no power steering, with aircon.

See specs here, they would fit a 302, probably a bracket is needed for power steering: https://www.hedman.com/product-detail/88308

Sorry, I'm not able to recommend exhaust places in Brisbane, as I live in Perth.

Hi all,
Just wondering what are peoples experience being with fitting headers :
1. Best brand
2. What to consider when fitting will they fit!) plug restriction, power steering ram bracket drop down, shock tower clearance
3. Long or short (preference)
4. Good exhaust shop (South side Brisbane)

I have a 302 windsor with stock exhaust system, power steer, with LHD.
Your thoughts experiences are appreciated on any of the given points

Peter

Hey there everyone. I recently picked up a 1970 hard top that's been modified to take part in variety bashes.

But neither me nor the guy I bought it off have the details of the guy who used to race it.

If anyone recognises the car or knows the owner or the guy who built it and could give me some contact details, that would be greatly appreciated, I'd love to know the history of this car.
