T-10 or Toploader 4-Speed Behind The FE
« on: January 28, 2014, 10:11:45 AM »
During data input for the FE Powerd Cars poll, most just listed a "4-Speed" if that was the transmission they have. While some specified either a T-10 or Top Loader. When did that change happen? When did Ford/Mercury stop using the T-10 behind the FE?

A similar question applies to lite trucks. F-100, F-150, F-250 and F-350 owners either specified a 4-Speed or a NP435 4-Speed. If it was a 4-Speed behind an FE in a lite truck in the late 60's & early 70's was it always a NP435 4-speed?  Was their another 4-Speed for that application?

I have 475 FE powered vehicles listed and I'm getting ready to close input and start crunching data. Thanks. ww

I think Ford used the NP 435 from 69-79 and the T-18 from 65-85.
