Other features include hybrid carbon/bronze synchronizers to make 7,500 rpm shifts possible and a wider, more durable gearset than the TKO. Ford Performance also mentions caged needle bearing for improved durability.
With the M-6392-R58 bell housing, this engine can easily be mated to Ford’s 302/351 engines. If you opt for the M-6392-R58 bell housing, it can be coupled to the 4.6, 5.0, 5.2, and 5.4 modular engines.
This is currently the perfect gearbox for a Mustang, F-100, or Bronco restomod. Imagine an original F-100 with a 5.0 Aluminator crate engine and a five-speed manual transmission.
Or you could go the other direction with Ford’s Eluminator EV crate engine, which also slots nicely underneath the hood of the old truck.
