Thanks AussiePhil, will give it a tentative try, as I said it's been rounded a bit, just don't want to make a bigger mess of it. it's always important to remember that luck can smile at any moment, but a sensible approach and managing your bets will help you enjoy https://woocasinoaustralia.com/ the game even more.If it doesn't work I'll definitely look into a set of sae sockets or spanners FB or last resort take it to my mechanic to do it (old school guy whose worked on numerous mustangs plus other classic models so in good hands), just trying to become a little more self reliant with maintenance and repairs.

Glad to hear you're giving it a go! It's always smart to start with a tentative approach, especially since it's already rounded a bit. If things don't pan out, a set of SAE sockets or spanners could make all the difference; they're essential for classic models like Mustangs. Having a reliable mechanic as backup is reassuring, especially one with experience on older Mustangs and similar classics—sounds like you're in good hands. It's great you're aiming for self-reliance in maintenance and repairs, and every small step builds confidence and skill.

Technical - General / Re: T5 Gearbox

Last post by EdgarGreene - October 28, 2024, 07:24:47 PM

Hi! The T5 gearboxes from a mid-1995 Falcon and a 1995 Mustang V6 are similar but not directly interchangeable without modifications. While they share a basic design, they have differences in bellhousing bolt patterns, input shaft lengths, and gear ratios that can affect compatibility. Swapping them would likely require adjustments, such as changing the bellhousing or modifying the input shaft. It's doable but may take some customization to get everything aligned properly.

Just make sure you have the correct balance weight for the era of the engine, not the car,

Hey Fickle,
This might help you identify your engine year of manufacture.

There is a cast number and a stamped number at the back of the valley.

Thanks Reborn, that shed a lot of light on the issue.

In the end I went with (original 66 setup, theory is I have a 70s motor in a 66 stang):
- 1964-68 Mustang Crankshaft Damper 260-289 https://www.custommustangs.com.au/1964-68-mustang-crankshaft-damper-260-289

- 1965-67 Mustang 289 w/AC/PS Crankshaft Pulley Triple Groove - Black (6 21/32" OD)
https://www.custommustangs.com.au/1965-67-mustang-289-w-ac-ps-crankshaft-pulley-trip

Will be installing today and I think this will solve it once and for all!
