hi all. I need help identifying if this will work for a flathead V8 set up. Will this work? the input shaft is .590 I was told its for a 4 cylinder application??
It has the Ford bolt pattern to the bellhousing. If you want it to have the shifter in front of the seat, that trans might not work.

Been selling T5 to Flathead engine transmission kits since 1994. Most complete kit on the market. Costs a little more to have a good one. In stock for early Chevy pattern (85-92) & late Ford (93 up) pattern trans. Gary at Cornhusker Rod & Custom
Looks like a Ford trans that has had a Jeep input shaft swapped into it. That lets you run a 1o spline clutch disk rather than hunt hither and yon for the unobtainable clutch disk with the right spline and diameter. I wouldn't argue against it being a 2 wheel drive Jeep trans though. You would get tarred and feathered and run out of town with a two wheel drive Jeep anything around here but in some areas they seem to sell.

It works, I’m running that same setup in my Merc right now, mine came out of a mid 80’s Chevy S-10, so I was told.
It looks like the Mustang T5 I have. Link to a thread I had on installing a T5 to my C69A. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/c59a-ford-flathead-ford-t5-1994.1267302/
Looks like the same one I have in my Model A, '89 Mustang. I swapped the tailshaft with an S10 to move the shifter.
