[QUOTE="rockmike, post: 1127890, member: 16492"] Honestly Fordzuki im not sure what trans it is,im really not much of a ford guy.I just looked through the wrecking lards looking for the shortest possible trans.This one seemed to be it.It came out of a 84 bronco 2 with v-6.It looks just like a t-5 to me.When I put it in 1st gear and turn the input shaft and count rotations,it comes out to just a sqeak under 4 rotations.So I guessed it at 3.95:1. Ill shoot a pic of it tonight and post it up,so you can get a better look at it.Sounds like you know your ferd trannys better than I. The 2.3l is a lil hopped up.I bored it .080 over cause the block was pretty bad.Its all I had,and was planning on runnin pane any way so I told the machine shop just clean her up,and well try it.Had them deck the block so all pistons come up perfectly. I used a 2.0l head with the lil ports in an attempt to just make alot of bottom end power.Its got a h.p. cam in it,with an adjustable pulley to dial in my power band.Mustang headder.Home made impco propane system.s.s. valves.Head is shaved .045 strait and .045 at an angle (gives it rediculous trottle responce).Maths out 13.1 compression. I have a ranger roller head,I just havnt desided if I want to go through it try it in this new rig,well see later. The flywheel is a turbo 2.3l mustang (excepts the larger clutch that this bronco 2 trans has) so Im able to use a stock application bronco 2 clutch/throw out and pilot bearing.The clutch is a dual friction Center Force. This trans had a hydraulic clutch,I rigged it up with a cable.That way I can just pack an extra cable and have that part of the rig covered for trail repare. [/QUOTE]
