I am reluctant to buy yet another transmission for the 48 Willys project. I have three manual 5-speed transmissions, Ford 4.0, RX8, and 944.
These don't bolt up to a Ford 5.0. But perhaps I could make them without spending more than finding a T5? (They seem to want $600 for them!?)
The 944 setup is intriguing, would be some effort to use it in a ford explorer chassis. But perhaps i don't have to use a Ford Explorer chassis
if I go with a 944 transaxle.
There is a 95 v6 mustang with T5 not too far away for $300. Should I just go that route? It would give me all the bits needed.
Or I can just use the automatic and call it good, but the v8 cammed loud exhaust needs a clutch to go with it me thinks..
What wisdom shall you impart upon me?
