Im lookin to swap my buddy's built 302 into my 96 out of his 66 mustang. Problem is it has a T-5 behind it which is a 2wd tranny and I need 4wd. I want a manual 4wd tranny. Do I have any options?

 

Beef up that transfer case. But if you want a manual and want a lot of power out of that motor i recommend the t-6!

 

yea dont get the t5 tranny its maximum torque rating is 300lbs and a 302 makes 295 stock so definately dont get the t5 lol you know what will happen

 

its not a ford t-5 its aftermarket and its torque rating is higher but it doesnt matter cause a 2wd tranny isnt an option.

 

whats a t6

 

I was wondering what they were talking about too?
Maybe meant C6 but thats an auto anyway

 

F150 5spd,
M5ODR2 route from a 97-up F150's 4.2 V6,
and I thought you could convert a T-5 to a T-Case (using a 5spd 4wd S10 tailshaft housing), isn't 91Ranger 5spd and 4x4?

 

you mean My91ranger... no its 2wd with a t-5 used to be AOD

 

Ahh, I see, thanks.

T5 to 1350 adapter:
P/N 50-1802 - T5 to Borg Warner 1350 T/C. Adapter length of 4-1/2”.
P/N 50-1803 - T5 to Borg Warner 1350 T/C. Adapter length of 6-1/2”.

I dont think youll want an M5ODR2 from a 4.2

i think youll want a <1996 M5ODR2 from a 302

beter yet, if you want creeper gear go with a ZF5-speed

 

So I could replace my 1354 with a 1350 and get the advance adapter to mate the 302+T-5 to the 1350? Thanks

 

but you will destroy the 1350 with a 5.0

 

The stronger 1354 should bolt up to the Advance Adapter kit the same way a 1350 does. The bad news is this: when I checked a couple of years ago, AA said that the T5 to 1350/1354 adapter kit was no longer in production.

 

edit

i was wrong they make it for the t18 tranny

 

If you want to keep the built T5 tranny what about running a divorced t-case? Just sign the papers and do away with it. LOL
Then you can find one that will stand up to the power, have a way better ratio selection, and do away with the pesky electronic t-case.

 

So I could run the 2wd T5 with a 4wd divorced such a a divorced 205?

 

6 speed manual that came in the cobra's. good luck finding one but its still an option.
t-56 my bad lol.
