    I have found a T85 that came out of a 62 ford car. Is the input shaft the same 10 spline as the T86 I have in my 56? I just bought a new clutch and wanted to make sure it's the same before I buy the trans.

    I know that the T85 came with 2 different spline counts, until 1957 it had a 10 spline input. After that I'm not sure if they were all the fine spline or not.

    The T86 used a 10 spline input but I believe it was 1'' and the T85 was 1 1/16'' or 1 1/8''

    Simple solution is to change the clutch disc.
