But my dad tells me it was pretty much gutless when it was new and 5th gear was useless unless you were going over 75MPH. I think it was rated at 110hp so even in fine tune it's not going to be a tire roaster.
I'm not sure of what kind of transmission, some sources sat it's a Borg-Warner T-50. Whatever it is, it sounds like a Muncie Rock Crusher in first gear. I asked my dad about it, thinking maybe the synchro's were shot or something. He said it's made that sound since it was new. Pretty cool stuff.
Blaze, why did us tried and true Ford guys come home in '70's GM stuff?
