i bought these two transmissions the other day at a yard sale. now what were they in originaly. here are my questions: do you have any info on them? do they hold up good behind a sbc under good to moderate driving ? is this a t50 ? 4 speed or 5 speed? i have pics of the numbers of the transmissions
T-50 5 speed OD. Mostly used in 4 cyl and V-6 apps. From a bit of digging some 305 Camero's and Firebirds real early 80s had some. A bit light for much more than a mild 327 etc. driven with any heavy foot. Kinda like running a early Ford 39 style box ,will work driven with a bit of care. Shift pattern is a bit different. R 2 4 L 3 5
It looks like a Saginaw as far as the front bolt pattern, shafts, etc. The shifter will probably be in a slightly different place. So it should fit where a saginaw was.
They came in cars that also used Saginaw four speeds, like the Monza/Skyhawk/Sunbird/Firenza type cars.
