Description

Need overdrive performance in a tight engine bay? The TREMEC Super Duty T5 is the answer. As the smallest and lightest transmission in the TREMEC lineup, it fits where others simply cannot - making it the go-to choice for classic car retrofits, hot rods, and kit cars where space is at a premium. At just 75 lbs dry weight, you get 5-speed capability without the bulk of larger transmissions.

This Z-specification unit represents a significant upgrade over the original equipment T5s found in '83-'93 Mustangs. Where the '83-'84 non-World Class units ran a 2.95 first with 0.63 overdrive but suffered from weaker synchronizers, and the '85-'93 World Class versions switched to a 3.35 first with 0.68 overdrive, the Super Duty combines the best of both worlds: the preferred 2.95/0.63 gear set with World Class internals including carbon fiber synchro rings on gears 1-4, tapered carrier bearings, and main needle bearings. The steel front bearing retainer and Cobra-style pocket bearing eliminate common failure points that plagued earlier designs.

The 2.95 first gear provides strong acceleration off the line, while the deep 0.63 overdrive significantly reduces highway RPM - cutting noise, heat, and wear while improving fuel economy. This transmission safely handles 330 ft-lb of torque and is suitable for street cars up to 450 horsepower on DOT-approved tires. It serves as a direct replacement for 1983-1993 V8 Mustangs and is ideal behind any small-block Ford engine, or as an upgrade for inline-four and six-cylinder applications. Requires 2.75 quarts of ATF Dexron III fluid.

For 1994-1995 5.0L V8 Mustangs or 1994-1998 3.8L V6 Mustangs, see part number MD-552-0251-94 for the SN95 version with longer input shaft.

Description

Swapping a TREMEC T5 (with Mustang tail housing) or T45 into a '65-'73 Mustang often leaves the factory shifter position off by inches. The Qwik Stik solves that problem with precision-machined billet aluminum plates that bolt directly to the transmission, bringing the shift lever back to the factory location with a 1" or 1.5" backward offset. No more guessing, shimming, or cutting--just attach your lever, boot, and knob and you're ready to row gears.

Unlike traditional shifters that rely on internal stops, the Qwik Stik uses Belleville washers to create excellent detent feel. This spring-loaded design eliminates the breakable stops found in other shifters while delivering crisp, precise 2-3 shifts. When service is eventually needed, the stop-free design makes disassembly and reassembly straightforward.

The compact top turret is sized specifically to clear the factory floor opening in early Mustangs, and the 7/8" on-center stub mounting accepts most aftermarket shift levers. A high-temperature lower dust/oil boot protects the internal components from contamination and fluid loss. Note: This shifter is designed for rear shifter position and rear socket position only. It will not fit Camaro or S-10 T5 transmissions.

Description

Eliminate bellhousing flex and the accelerated drivetrain wear that comes with it. The QuickTime RM-6060 steel bellhousing connects Ford small block engines (289, 302, 351C, 351W) to Ford T5 Mustang, TKO 500/600, TKX, or TR3550 transmissions using standard-length input shafts. Unlike cheaper alternatives made from rolled or stamped steel, QuickTime's unique spin-forming process creates a cone that maintains perfect engine-to-transmission alignment throughout the entire RPM range.

The engineering advantage is measurable: high-grade steel that work-hardens to over 80,000 PSI delivers more than twice the strength of competing steel bellhousings while keeping weight down to approximately 20 pounds. This rigidity translates directly to reduced input shaft wear, consistent clutch engagement, and improved power transfer. The bellhousing is 6.925 inches deep with a universal transmission bore of 4.850/4.910 inches, designed for use with 157-tooth flywheels and clutches up to 10.5 inches.

This is a universal-fit bellhousing -- not vehicle-specific -- making it ideal for engine swaps, restomod builds, and custom applications where the factory bellhousing won't work.

Description

When you're running deep into the 11s or faster, track officials aren't going to let you stage without an SFI-certified bellhousing. The QuickTime RM-6065 delivers that certification while solving another critical problem: bellhousing flex. Lesser bellhousings made from rolled or stamped steel distort under load, causing accelerated wear on your input shaft, pilot bearing, and clutch assembly. QuickTime's patented spin-forming process creates a bellhousing that maintains perfect engine-to-transmission alignment throughout the entire RPM range.

The difference is in the manufacturing. QuickTime cones are spun rather than rolled or stamped, resulting in the most dimensionally stable bellhousing on the market. This high-grade steel construction work hardens to over 80,000 PSI - more than twice the strength of conventional steel bellhousings - while keeping weight down to just 22 pounds. The compact design provides clearance for headers without requiring tunnel modifications.

The RM-6065 connects 6-bolt small block Ford engines (289, 302, 351W, 351C) to Ford-pattern T5 (standard-length input shaft), TR3550, TKO 500/600, or TKX transmissions. The universal 4.850/4.910-inch transmission bore accommodates all these gearboxes, while the 157-tooth flywheel compatibility and 10.5-inch maximum clutch diameter handle serious power. Universal fork brackets work with diaphragm or cable-operated linkage, and the bellhousing accepts cable, hydraulic, or mechanical clutch release systems.

This is a universal fit bellhousing - not vehicle specific - making it ideal for swaps, restorations, and custom builds where you need proven SFI 6.1 protection without compromise. Proudly made in the USA with patents on 16 points of bellhousing design and process.

Description

Block plates solve a critical alignment issue in manual transmission swaps and rebuilds. These metal plates sit between your engine block and transmission bellhousing, positioning the starter to ensure proper starter drive engagement with your flywheel ring gear. Without the correct plate for your flywheel tooth count, the starter pinion may crash into the ring gear or fail to engage entirely -- causing starter kickout, flywheel damage, or both.

This MDL block plate is engineered to OEM Ford Racing M-7007-B specifications, manufactured from 0.080-inch thick steel for maximum strength and longevity. The clear zinc plating sets it apart from unfinished factory-style alternatives -- protecting against rust and corrosion in harsh engine bay environments while providing a cleaner, more finished appearance. The plate also helps contain flywheel or clutch breakage, adding an extra layer of safety to your drivetrain.

The 6-bolt mounting pattern fits Ford Small Block engines including 289, 302, 351W, and 5.0L applications. Designed specifically for 157-tooth flywheel configurations, this plate ensures correct starter indexing when paired with T5, TKO, or TKX transmissions. Works seamlessly in front of MDL's aluminum bellhousings for T5 (MD-401-1101) and TKO (MD-401-1401) applications. Installs easily with no modifications to your engine block or bellhousing.

Key Features

• Direct-fit replacement for 1979-1993 Fox-Body Mustang cable-style bellhousings
• Compatible with both factory cable actuation and external hydraulic slave cylinder setups
• Works with TREMEC T5, TKO, and 1993 & earlier Windsor T56 transmissions
• Correct 9 o'clock fork position specific to Fox-Body applications - not interchangeable with SN95 forks
• Proper pivot point geometry for reliable clutch engagement

Description

When you're building or maintaining a Fox-Body Mustang with a manual transmission, using the correct clutch fork isn't optional - it's critical. This clutch lever is specifically engineered for 1979-1993 Mustangs and delivers the proper pivot geometry required for clean, consistent clutch engagement with cable-style bellhousings.

The Fox-Body clutch fork positions at the 9 o'clock location when viewed from the rear of the bellhousing - a distinctly different orientation than the SN95's 7 o'clock position. This isn't just a cosmetic difference: the lever length and pivot points are purpose-built for Fox applications. Using the wrong fork creates severe cable angle problems, premature cable wear, and inconsistent clutch feel. SN95 forks are longer with different pivot spacing and cannot be substituted.

This fork works equally well whether you're running the original cable actuation or upgrading to an external hydraulic slave cylinder. When paired with external hydraulics, the fork operates as a pusher instead of the traditional cable pull - eliminating the stretching, snapping, and binding issues that plague factory clutch cables over time. The result is smoother pedal effort and more reliable engagement, especially with high-performance clutches.

Compatible with 1979-1993 Mustang applications running TREMEC T5, TKO, or 1993 & earlier Windsor T56 transmissions. Requires a compatible cable-style small-block bellhousing for proper fitment.

What's Included

• One (1) clutch fork/lever for 1979-1993 Fox-Body Mustang

• Includes spring pivot point for stock linkage compatibility (spring not used with cable or hydraulic systems)
• Rubber pedal stop included to prevent metal-to-metal contact and squeaking
• Made in the USA

Description

Converting a '69-'70 Mustang or Cougar from automatic to manual transmission? The biggest headache is wrestling the clutch pedal pivot shaft through the pedal support bracket in tight under-dash confines. MDL's clutch pedal solves that problem with a removable bolt-on pivot shaft that slides into place after the pedal arm is positioned - no need to drop the entire pedal support or contort yourself into impossible angles.

This OEM-spec replacement duplicates the original '69-'70 clutch pedal in every dimension and mounting point, with one critical improvement: the bolt-on pivot shaft design. It drops right into place whether you're working with an existing manual setup or converting from automatic. When converting, the stock pedal support is reused and the brake pedal simply gets trimmed on the left side to create the narrower manual-shift pad - no replacement brake pedal required.

The pedal includes all necessary mounting provisions for various clutch release systems. A spring pivot point comes installed for use with stock mechanical linkage, though the spring is not needed when running cable or hydraulic clutch release. The included rubber pedal stop prevents metal-to-metal contact that causes annoying squeaks and premature wear at the pedal travel limit.

Fits 1969-70 Ford Mustang and Mercury Cougar with all pedal support configurations. Engineered and manufactured in the United States to OEM specifications. Pair with MDL's complete hydraulic or cable clutch conversion kits for a seamless manual transmission swap.

• Works in both clutch and brake pedal assemblies
• Manual transmission cars require six bushings; automatics require four
• Fits 1960-2004 Ford Mustang, Cougar, Fairlane, Falcon, and many Ford applications

Description

Worn pedal bushings create sloppy, imprecise pedal feel that only gets worse with every drive. This high-strength nylon bushing restores tight, responsive pedal action by eliminating the play and binding that develops when original bushings deteriorate over decades of use.

Made from durable, wear-resistant plastic, this bushing handles the constant pivoting forces of clutch and brake pedal operation without cracking or wearing out prematurely. The precise 5/8" length matches the original Ford B7AZ-2471-A specification for correct pedal geometry and feel.

This bushing works in both clutch and brake pedal assemblies that share the same 5/8" OD pivot shaft. Manual transmission cars require six bushings total—four in the common pivot shaft plus two additional at the clutch pedal. Automatic cars need four bushings. Note that '67 and later Mustangs with power brakes only require two bushings at the clutch pedal, since the power brake lever pivots on a separate shaft.

Direct replacement for Ford part number B7AZ-2471-A. Fits 1960-2004 Ford applications including Mustang, Cougar, Fairlane, Falcon, and many others. 

** For GM application see part number MD-402-1009

• Fits 1965-1973 Mustang plus many other 1960s-70s Ford applications

Description

Factory plastic pedal bushings are one of the most common failure points in classic Mustang clutch systems. They wear quickly, creating sloppy pedal feel, increased effort, and inconsistent clutch engagement. This roller bearing kit permanently solves that problem by replacing those soft plastic pieces with steel roller bearings that deliver smooth, precise pedal action for years.

The roller bearing design dramatically reduces friction at the pivot point, translating directly to lighter pedal effort and more tactile clutch feel. Instead of fighting a sticky, binding pedal during spirited driving, you get consistent engagement every time. The zinc-plated roller bearing supports clip directly into your existing factory mounting points, maintaining OEM appearance while delivering superior durability.

For pedal hangers that show wear from years of use, the kit includes a reinforcement washer that can be welded in place to restore structural integrity before installing the new bearings. This is a straightforward upgrade once the pedal support assembly is removed from the vehicle. Note that 1969-1973 applications may require minor modification to the pedal bracket assembly for proper fitment.

Designed as a direct replacement for Ford part number C5ZZ-2478-RB, this kit fits 1965-1973 Mustangs and works with many other Ford applications from the same era. If your clutch pedal feels agricultural instead of precise, worn bushings are likely the culprit - and this kit is the permanent fix.

Kit Includes

• Steel roller bearing clutch pedal pivot supports (zinc-plated)
• Reinforcement washer for worn pedal hanger repair
• Mounting hardware

Key Features

• Heavy-duty lined clutch cable specifically designed for early Mustang - not a repurposed Fox Body cable
• Tool-free cable adjustment with easy-access firewall mounting point
• Bolt-on adjustable pedal bracket - no welding required, reuses stock clutch pedal
• Firewall reinforcement plate mounts behind brake master or factory brake booster
• Cable housing secured via oil pan bolt with fully adjustable rod end connection to clutch fork

• Clears most headers with proper clearance (minimum 1-inch recommended)
• Complete kit - no additional parts required for installation

Description

The factory mechanical Z-bar linkage in '69-'70 Mustangs and Cougars was adequate for original applications, but adding a T5, TKO, or TKX TREMEC transmission exposes its limitations - sloppy engagement, inconsistent pedal feel, and interference issues with modern headers. This MDL clutch cable conversion eliminates those headaches with a purpose-built cable system that delivers smooth, linear clutch action.

Unlike generic Fox Body cable adaptations, this kit uses a heavy-duty lined clutch cable specifically routed for the early Mustang chassis. The cable runs ahead of the exhaust and follows the oil pan flange, keeping it away from heat sources. The cable housing mounts securely using one of the oil pan bolts, and the connection to your pull-style clutch fork uses a fully adjustable rod end for precise engagement geometry.

Installation requires no welding - the stock clutch pedal is retained with a bolt-on adjustable pedal bracket that provides the pulling action. The firewall reinforcement plate mounts behind your brake master cylinder or factory brake booster and features an easy-access, tool-free adjustment point for quick fine-tuning. MDL engineered this system to work with both manual brakes and OE Bendix 8-inch power brake boosters.

This kit requires a cable-compatible bellhousing or scatter shield with a minimum 7-inch depth and is designed exclusively for pull-style clutch forks. It will not work with push-style forks, band-clamp style brake boosters, or certain aftermarket 8-inch and larger brake boosters. Easy to moderate installation difficulty. Made in the USA.

What's Included

• Heavy-duty lined clutch cable with custom early Mustang routing
• Bolt-on adjustable pedal bracket (stock clutch pedal compatible)
• Firewall reinforcement plate
• High-temperature heat shielding
• Firewall grommet
• Complete mounting hardware and brackets
• Fully adjustable rod end
• Detailed installation instructions

LF Series Hydraulic Clutch Master Kit | 1967-1970 Mustang/Cougar | Plastic Reservoir

Key Features

• 0.700" bore x 1.4" stroke master cylinder delivers optimal fluid volume with light pedal effort
• Revolutionary pedal linkage maintains stock clutch pedal pivot point for factory feel
• Linkage design creates mechanical advantage, dramatically reducing pedal pressure
• Uses existing mechanical clutch rod hole (where possible) for simplified installation
• Compatible with most aftermarket external and internal slave cylinders
• Remote black plastic reservoir mounts cleanly on firewall
• One-Man-Bleeder Kit included for easy system bleeding
• Made in the USA

Description

Converting your '67-'70 Mustang or Cougar to a modern transmission or upgrading from mechanical linkage demands a hydraulic clutch system engineered specifically for the job. Most retrofit kits bolt a short-stroke, large-bore master cylinder directly to your pedal, creating heavy pedal pressure, mounting interference at the firewall, and an overall poor driving experience. The LF Series solves these problems with an innovative linkage design that transforms pedal geometry and delivers a dramatically improved driver experience.

The common retrofit approach uses a 3/4" or 7/8" bore by 1" stroke master cylinder connected directly to the pedal. This short stroke combined with improper mounting angles results in excessive pedal effort and limited clutch control. The LF Series revolutionary linkage matches your full pedal travel with a long-stroke master cylinder, creating mechanical advantage that significantly reduces pedal effort while optimizing clutch engagement control. The linkage allows positioning perpendicular to the firewall using the mechanical clutch rod hole (where possible), eliminating the interference issues that plague direct-mount setups.

The 0.700" bore combined with 1.4" stroke generates enough fluid volume to properly actuate most aftermarket external slaves or internal hydraulic release bearings. The remote black plastic reservoir mounts separately on the firewall for clean installation and easy fluid level checks. Uses DOT 3 or 4 brake fluid only -- no special high-temp fluid required.

Fits 1967-1970 Ford Mustang and Mercury Cougar with factory pedal assemblies. Will NOT work with band-clamp brake boosters or certain aftermarket brake boosters 8" and larger. Requires factory firewall, pedal, and pedal hanger to be in good working order -- any modifications or damage to these components will affect master cylinder performance.

Description

Converting your '67-'70 Mustang or Cougar to a modern TREMEC transmission or upgrading from worn mechanical linkage? The MDL LF Series Master Cylinder Kit solves the common problems that plague most hydraulic conversions. Traditional approaches use oversized 3/4-inch or 7/8-inch bore cylinders with short 1-inch strokes mounted directly to the pedal--creating heavy pedal pressure and firewall interference issues. The short stroke compounds the problem, requiring excessive force for proper clutch release.

The LF Series breaks this pattern with a revolutionary mechanical linkage system that allows the 0.700-inch bore master cylinder to utilize the full 1.4-inch stroke while maintaining the stock clutch pedal pivot point. This linkage creates mechanical advantage, dramatically reducing pedal effort while generating sufficient fluid volume for reliable clutch actuation. The firewall-mounted linkage plate distributes loads evenly and eliminates the binding that occurs with direct-mount systems.

The remote-mounted black anodized billet aluminum reservoir keeps brake fluid accessible while providing a clean, professional installation. The system works seamlessly with industry-standard slave cylinders and hydraulic release bearings, making it compatible with virtually any TREMEC transmission setup. Each kit includes comprehensive installation instructions and MDL's proprietary One-Man-Bleeder Kit for hassle-free system bleeding. Use DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid only.

Description

Converting your classic Mustang or Cougar to a modern TREMEC transmission—or simply upgrading from tired mechanical linkage—demands a hydraulic clutch system that delivers light pedal effort without compromising installation simplicity. The LF Series (Light Foot) Hydraulic Clutch Master Kit solves the engineering challenges that plague most conversion kits: heavy pedal pressure, firewall interference, and compatibility headaches.

The problem with conventional hydraulic conversions is simple math. A typical 3/4-inch or 7/8-inch bore master cylinder with a 1-inch stroke connects directly to the pedal, requiring the cylinder to mount higher than the stock clutch rod hole—creating interference issues with the firewall and pedal assembly while producing excessive pedal loads. The LF Series takes a fundamentally different approach: an innovative mechanical linkage that works with your existing clutch pedal and rod hole location, matching pedal travel to a long-stroke master cylinder for dramatically reduced pedal effort.

The 0.700-inch bore paired with a 1.4-inch stroke generates sufficient fluid volume to support most aftermarket external slave cylinders and internal hydraulic release bearings. The clear anodized billet aluminum reservoir mounts remotely on the firewall for a clean installation and allows instant visual confirmation of fluid level. The system uses DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid—no need for expensive high-temperature fluid.

This kit fits 1967-1970 Mustangs and Cougars and works with both original factory clutch pedals and OE reproduction aftermarket pedals. Factory components must be in good working order—any modifications or damage to the firewall, pedal, or pedal hanger will affect master cylinder performance. Note: This kit will NOT work with band-clamp brake boosters or certain aftermarket brake boosters 8 inches and larger. Made in the USA with lifetime technical support from Modern Driveline.

Description

Running a classic Ford small block and want flexibility in your clutch setup? This dual-pattern cast iron flywheel eliminates the one-flywheel-per-clutch-size limitation that plagues so many builds. The machined face accepts both the 10" long-style diaphragm clutches found in vintage applications and the 10.4" metric diaphragm clutches used on high-performance '79–'01 Mustangs — so you can start with a stock-style clutch and upgrade to a higher-capacity unit later without pulling the flywheel.

Cast iron construction delivers the rotating mass needed for civilized street manners: smooth idle, progressive engagement, and excellent heat absorption during stop-and-go driving. The 157-tooth ring gear mates with the smaller-diameter bellhousings and starters common on '64–'68 Mustangs and other early Ford small block applications. Precision machining ensures a flat, true friction surface that improves clutch performance and reduces vibration.

The 28oz external imbalance is correct for pre-1981 Ford Windsor and Cleveland engines — 260, 289, 302, 351W, and 351C. (Post-1981 5.0L engines use a 50oz imbalance; verify your engine's balance before ordering.) The 6-bolt crank pattern with 7/16" hardware provides a secure connection to the crankshaft flange.

Compatible with 3-speed, 4-speed, and T5 5-speed manual transmissions. While cast iron flywheels work for light motorsports use, understand the RPM and load limits — billet steel offers better stability for sustained high-RPM or competition applications.

Description

When Ford switched the 302 to the 5.0L designation in 1981, they also changed the external balance from 28oz to 50oz. That means every '81-'95 5.0L Windsor needs a flywheel with the correct counterweight to maintain proper engine balance and eliminate vibration. This cast iron flywheel delivers exactly that - the right balance for your late-model small-block Ford, with the 157-tooth ring gear that mates to standard small-block bellhousings and starters.

The 10.4" metric clutch pattern is a Ford-specific design that uses alignment pins rather than shouldered bolts to locate the pressure plate. These equalizing pins ensure precise concentricity between the pressure plate and flywheel - critical for smooth clutch engagement and even wear. The metric pattern accommodates modern diaphragm-style pressure plates with 8mm hardware, making it compatible with factory and aftermarket clutch assemblies designed for '83-'95 Mustangs and other 5.0L applications.

Cast iron provides the strength and thermal stability needed for street duty, absorbing and dissipating heat through repeated clutch engagements without the hot spots that can develop on lighter materials. At 19 lbs, this flywheel maintains enough rotational mass for smooth idle and progressive engagement - the kind of drivability you want in a daily driver or weekend cruiser. The 6-bolt crankshaft pattern bolts directly to the factory crank flange with no adapters or modifications required.

Description

When you're building a high-revving Ford small block, your flywheel needs to handle the abuse without becoming a liability. Cast iron flywheels can crack under stress, and non-certified components may not meet the safety standards required at the track. This SFI certified billet steel flywheel delivers the strength and peace of mind that serious builds demand - meeting the rigorous testing standards established by the SFI Foundation for replacement flywheels and clutch assemblies.

The billet steel construction provides superior tensile strength compared to cast alternatives, resisting the centrifugal forces that tear lesser flywheels apart at high RPM. The lightweight design reduces rotating mass for quicker throttle response and faster revs, while maintaining enough thermal mass for consistent clutch engagement. Zero balance (internal balance) simplifies installation on Ford 289, 302, 351W, and 351C engines that use internally balanced rotating assemblies.

Versatility is built into the design with dual clutch bolt patterns. The 10" long pattern accepts 5/16" pressure plate bolts, while the 10.4" metric pattern uses 8mm bolts - and the metric alignment pins come pre-installed so you're ready for either setup. The 6.00" clutch damper counter-bore provides proper clearance for diaphragm-style pressure plates. Note that 157-tooth flywheels require a 3/4" offset starter (often labeled as "automatic" in parts catalogs) for proper ring gear engagement.

Manufactured in the USA with US-milled steel, this flywheel delivers the quality and consistency that American craftsmanship is known for. Whether you're building a weekend warrior or a dedicated track car, SFI certification means this flywheel meets the standards required by most sanctioning bodies for competition use.

Overview

Factory cast iron flywheels have their limits. At high RPM or under aggressive clutch clamping loads, they can develop stress cracks that compromise both performance and safety. This lighten billet steel flywheel replaces that weak link with a material that's fundamentally stronger—billet steel resists cracking and remains stable under the demands of performance driving.

The "lighten" designation refers to strategic material removal that reduces rotational mass without sacrificing structural integrity. At 19 lbs, this flywheel strikes the sweet spot between weight reduction and street manners—light enough for improved throttle response and quicker revs, yet heavy enough to maintain smooth idle characteristics and prevent the stalling issues common with ultra-lightweight aluminum units. The result is a flywheel that feels responsive on throttle tip-in while still delivering civilized behavior in traffic.

Dual clutch bolt patterns machined into the friction surface eliminate fitment guesswork, accepting both 10" and 10.5" pressure plates. The 157-tooth ring gear and 28oz external imbalance match OE specifications for pre-December 1982 small block Fords, ensuring proper starter engagement and crankshaft balance. This flywheel fits Ford 289, 302, and 351W Windsor engines, plus Ford Racing 363ci and 427ci stroker crate motors that use the 28oz balance specification.

Six-bolt crankshaft mounting provides secure attachment, while included clutch alignment pins ensure proper disc positioning during installation. Every flywheel is precision-machined from US-milled steel and manufactured in the USA.

Description

Cast iron flywheels can't handle serious RPM or the repeated abuse of high-horsepower launches. This billet steel flywheel is precision CNC-machined from certified steel, engineered to survive the stress levels that crack and shatter cast units. At 19 pounds, it sheds significant rotating mass compared to heavy OEM flywheels -- translating to quicker revs, faster deceleration between shifts, and reduced parasitic drag on the crankshaft.

The 28oz external balance is critical: all Ford 221, 260, 289, 302, and 351W engines built before December 1982 use a 28-ounce offset balance. Mismatch the balance weight and you'll introduce severe harmonic vibration that punishes bearings and shortens engine life. Post-1981 5.0L High Output engines switched to a 50oz balance -- this flywheel is not for those applications. Match your balance weight to your engine's build date, not the vehicle year.

The dual bolt pattern accommodates both 10" and 10.5" clutch assemblies, giving you flexibility when selecting or upgrading your pressure plate without swapping flywheels. The 157-tooth ring gear is the standard configuration for most small block Ford manual transmission applications in vintage Mustangs, Falcons, Fairlanes, and similar platforms.

Description

Factory cast iron flywheels become the weak link when you push serious power through a 5.0L Windsor. Cast iron is prone to stress cracking under repeated high-RPM clutch engagement, and a cracked flywheel at speed is a catastrophic failure waiting to happen. This lightened billet steel flywheel delivers the strength needed for high-performance street builds and competition use while shaving weight to improve engine response.

Billet steel is considerably stronger than cast iron and remains free of the stress cracks that plague factory flywheels under heavy use. The lightened design reduces rotational mass compared to standard-weight flywheels, allowing faster throttle response on acceleration and quicker RPM drop on deceleration - a noticeable improvement whether you're rowing through gears on the street or chasing lap times. The 50oz external balance matches factory 5.0L engine specifications for 1981-1995 applications, ensuring smooth operation with no vibration.

The dual clutch pattern provides flexibility in clutch selection, accepting both 10.5" metric diaphragm pressure plates and 10" long-style setups. Metric alignment pins come pre-installed to ensure proper clutch disc centering during installation. Note that diaphragm clutches require metric pressure plate bolts (MD-403-2003 or MD-403-2003ARP), while the 10" long pattern uses 5/16" bolts (MD-403-2004).

Engineered for Ford small block Windsor engines with 157-tooth starter ring gear applications. Fits all 1981-1995 Ford 5.0L engines requiring 50oz external balance. Proudly made in the USA using US-milled billet steel.

What's Included

• Lightened billet steel flywheel with 157-tooth ring gear
• Metric clutch alignment pins (pre-installed)

Key Features

• Lightweight aluminum construction at 19 lbs - significantly lighter than cast iron for faster engine response
• Riveted steel clutch facing for superior durability and heat dissipation
• Dual clutch bolt pattern: 10" Long and 10.4" metric with dowel pins for maximum compatibility
• Zero balance configuration standard; can be ordered with 28 oz or 50 oz counterweight options
• 157-tooth steel ring gear mechanically fastened to flywheel body - prevents ring gear separation
• 6-bolt crankshaft mounting pattern for Ford small block engines
• Made in the USA

Description

Shed rotational mass without sacrificing reliability. This lightweight aluminum flywheel weighs just 19 lbs compared to heavy cast iron units, helping your engine reach higher RPMs quicker due to reduced rotating mass. That reduced inertia translates to improved throttle response and acceleration - the engine spends less energy spinning up the flywheel and more energy putting power to the wheels.

The riveted steel clutch facing provides superior heat dissipation and wear characteristics compared to bonded surfaces. Unlike cheaper aluminum flywheels that use pressed-on ring gears, this 157-tooth steel ring gear is mechanically fastened to the flywheel body, preventing the ring gear separation failures that can occur under high-stress conditions. The dual bolt pattern accommodates both vintage 10" Long-style and modern 10.4" metric pressure plates with dowel pins - eliminating compatibility guesswork across Ford's clutch evolution.

Engineered specifically for Ford small block 289, 302, and 351W Windsor engines, this flywheel comes standard as zero balance for internally balanced engines. For externally balanced applications, 28 oz or 50 oz counterweight options are available to match your specific crankshaft requirements - pre-1981 302s and all 351Ws use 28 oz imbalance, while 1981+ 302/5.0L engines require 50 oz.

Note: Aluminum flywheels spin up faster but have less stored energy than cast iron, which can make the engine easier to stall at low RPMs. If paired with a dual clutch set, this helps offset some of the characteristics. Aluminum flywheels should never be paired with ceramic or bronze clutches due to the added heat they generate. It is recommended to warm the flywheel before installing on the crank. Not SFI approved - intended for street performance and moderate competition use. Made in the USA with lifetime technical support.

Description

Ditch the heavy factory cast iron flywheel and drop serious rotating mass from your Ford small block. This aluminum flywheel delivers the weight reduction performance builds demand while maintaining the durability street engines require. Lighter rotating mass means quicker engine response and faster acceleration through the gears - your engine revs up and recovers faster between shifts.

The engineering here focuses on heat management and longevity. The riveted steel clutch facing provides a durable friction surface that handles heat far better than aluminum-on-aluminum contact, preventing warping and premature wear in spirited driving. The high-carbon steel ring gear is riveted to the aluminum body rather than pressed or shrunk on - this prevents the ring gear from walking off the flywheel under the repeated thermal cycling and shock loads of hard use.

This flywheel carries the correct 28oz external balance for pre-1981 Ford 289 and 302 engines, as well as all 351 Windsor engines regardless of year. The 157-tooth ring gear is sized for small bellhousing applications - the compact aluminum bellhousing, not the larger cast iron 164-tooth style. Includes dowel pins for proper clutch alignment with 10.5-inch diaphragm clutch kits.

Installation note: It is recommended to warm the flywheel before installing on the crankshaft for proper thermal expansion and fit. Aluminum flywheels should not be paired with ceramic or bronze-faced clutch discs due to the excessive heat these materials generate. Made in the USA.

What's Included

• Aluminum flywheel with steel clutch facing
• 157-tooth steel ring gear (riveted)
• Clutch alignment dowel pins for 10.5-inch clutch

Key Features

• Riveted steel clutch facing permanently fastened to aluminum body - prevents ring gear separation under high loads
• 157-tooth ring gear for proper starter engagement on 5.0L HO applications
• 50oz external counterweight matches factory balance on 1981-1995 Ford 5.0L HO engines
• 19 lb total weight - reduces rotating mass versus stock cast iron flywheels
• Six-bolt crankshaft mounting pattern for direct replacement installation
• 10.4" metric clutch bolt pattern with alignment pins
• Made in the USA

Description

Cut rotating mass from your 5.0L drivetrain with this aluminum flywheel, purpose-built for 1981-1995 Ford 5.0L HO engines. Weighing just 19 lbs, it delivers noticeably quicker throttle response and faster RPM changes compared to stock cast iron units - ideal for road racing, autocross, and spirited street driving where nimble engine response matters more than low-RPM grunt.

The critical engineering detail is the riveted steel clutch facing. Unlike cheaper aluminum flywheels that rely on shrink-fit alone, this design permanently fastens the steel ring gear to the aluminum body using mechanical fasteners. This prevents the ring gear from walking or separating under hard launches and high-heat clutch engagement - a common failure mode when differential thermal expansion rates cause the steel ring gear to loosen on an aluminum body.

The 50oz external imbalance is factory-correct for Ford 5.0L HO engines from 1981-1995, ensuring smooth operation without vibration. The 157-tooth ring gear matches OEM specifications for proper starter motor engagement. Six-bolt crankshaft attachment follows Ford's original pattern, and the 10.4" metric clutch bolt pattern with alignment pins accommodates most performance clutch upgrades.

Important: Aluminum flywheels reduce stored rotational energy, which can make low-RPM driving feel less forgiving - they're easier to stall from a stop. This flywheel should not be paired with ceramic or bronze clutch discs, as the excessive heat generated can damage the aluminum body. It is recommended to warm the flywheel before installing on the crankshaft for optimal fit. Made in the USA.

What's Included

• Aluminum flywheel with riveted steel clutch facing
• Clutch alignment pins

Description

The importance of pressure plate bolts in racing or high-performance street applications cannot be emphasized nearly enough. These fasteners play a key role in both the performance and safety of a vehicle. Factory pressure plate bolts are notorious weak points that can stretch or fail under power, leading to clutch slippage, pressure plate distortion, or catastrophic failure. When you're building serious power, the last thing you want is substandard hardware compromising your drivetrain.

ARP engineered these High Performance Series bolts specifically for 1986-1995 Ford 302 and 351 Windsor applications. Each bolt is forged from premium-grade 8740 chromoly steel and heat-treated prior to thread rolling and machining, achieving a nominal tensile strength of 180,000 PSI. The application-specific design ensures optimum grip length for your Ford V8, eliminating the guesswork that comes with generic hardware.

The 8mm x 1.25 threading matches factory specs while delivering vastly superior strength. Each bolt features a hex head design with 10mm socket access for easy installation and removal. The black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance while maintaining a clean appearance under the hood. The large diameter, low profile design increases clamping force compared to stock bolts, reducing the risk of pressure plate flex under high-load conditions.

Fits all 1986-1995 Ford applications equipped with 302 or 351W engines, including Mustang 5.0L, F-150 trucks, Bronco, E-Series vans, and Crown Victoria. Kit includes six pressure plate bolts with washers for complete replacement of all factory fasteners.

Description

When you need more holding power than stock but refuse to give up street manners, the Superior Kevlar/Organic clutch set delivers. This dual-material design pairs Kevlar on the pressure plate side with steel-backed organic facing on the flywheel side--a deliberate engineering choice that exploits the strengths of both materials. Kevlar's coefficient of friction actually increases with temperature, meaning the harder you drive it, the better it grips. The organic side provides the smooth, progressive engagement that keeps this clutch civilized in traffic.

Rated at 450 ft-lbs for Performance Street Plus applications, this clutch handles the demands of modified 5.0L engines, bolt-on power adders, and weekend track days without the harsh pedal feel or chatter of full-race setups. The sprung hub dampens engagement shock that would otherwise stress your transmission and driveshaft, while the diaphragm-style pressure plate delivers consistent clamping force through the full range of pedal travel.

The 10.4" metric pattern uses 8mm pressure plate bolts--a critical distinction from the SAE-thread 10.5" pattern found on GM and some Ford applications. This kit is purpose-built for Ford applications requiring a 1-1/16" x 10-spline input shaft and cable clutch actuation. Every Superior clutch is hand-assembled at MDL's Caldwell, Idaho facility and double-checked for accuracy before it leaves the shop.

Description

Worn shift balls with faded graphics look cheap and undermine an otherwise clean build. This MDL 5-Speed Black Shift Ball solves that problem with subsurface graphics that are embedded below the polished surface - they physically cannot wear off, fade, or chip regardless of how many miles you put on the car or how aggressively you shift.

The ball is constructed from a specially formulated high-impact polymer resin developed specifically for automotive applications. Unlike generic plastics that crack and degrade with age and temperature cycling, this formulation resists stress cracking even after years of exposure to heat, cold, and UV light. At 4 ounces, the weight is calibrated to provide positive shift engagement without the excessive mass that can stress synchronizers or create unwanted momentum during quick shifts.

Inside, a brass or aluminum master insert provides the threaded mounting point and exceeds automotive industry specifications - tested to withstand 200 ft. lbs. of static pull force and 20 ft. lbs. of twist torque. The 3/8"-16 internal threading fits most domestic shifter applications, and MDL stocks thread adapters for virtually any shifter setup if your lever uses a different thread pitch. Each ball is precision machined and polished to a high-gloss finish that looks as good as it feels.

Made in the USA by a manufacturer that has been producing precision shift components since 1952, this shift ball delivers the quality and attention to detail that serious builds demand. Whether you are finishing a classic muscle car, a restomod, or a modern performance machine, the MDL logo and 5-speed pattern tell everyone you built it right.

Description

The shift knob is your primary connection point to the drivetrain during every gear change. This white 5-speed shift ball delivers the durability and feel you need with high-impact polymer resin specifically formulated for automotive applications. Unlike generic plastics that develop stress cracks over time from temperature cycling and repeated use, this material is engineered to handle real-world performance conditions.

The 1-7/8" diameter provides excellent grip surface and comfortable palm contact. The 5-speed shift pattern is applied subsurface, meaning the graphics are embedded within the material rather than printed on top -- they physically cannot wear off from years of shifting. The entire ball is precision machined and polished to a high-gloss finish that resists scratching and cleans easily.

At the core is a brass master insert machined to 16mm x 1.50 threading. This insert is tested to exceed automotive industry specifications: 200 ft-lbs of static pull and 20 ft-lbs of twist torque. Because the knob uses the common 16mm x 1.50 master insert, it accepts MDL's complete line of thread reducing inserts -- so you can adapt it to fit 3/8"-16, 3/8"-24, 5/16"-18, 12mm x 1.75, 10mm x 1.50, and other common shift lever thread sizes. If your shifter doesn't use 16mm x 1.50 threading, just add the appropriate reducer to make it work.

Weighing 4 ounces, this knob provides enough mass for positive shifting feedback without the excessive weight that can stress shift mechanisms or cause gear selection issues. Made in the USA with automotive-grade materials and quality craftsmanship.

Description

When your original shift lever is worn, bent, or missing, this Hurst Competition/Plus chrome shift stick brings back the legendary feel and styling that made Hurst "America's Number 1 Shifter Company." Designed as a direct replacement for 1969-1973 Mustang applications, this lever positions the shift knob exactly where Ford intended -- with dimensions that match the factory Hurst setup.

Hurst bolt-on shifter sticks are ideal for use in custom applications where a particular height or offset is required. This lever measures 12 inches tall with a 7.5-inch setback and 2-inch offset toward the driver, placing the knob in the perfect position for quick, confident shifts. The forged steel construction delivers the rigidity you need for aggressive driving, while the triple chrome plating provides lasting durability and show-quality appearance.

The 3/8"-16 threaded tip accepts any Hurst shift knob or T-handle, giving you flexibility to customize your interior. The dual 3/8-inch mounting holes on 7/8-inch center-to-center spacing ensure rock-solid attachment to any Hurst shifter with two-bolt mounting. This lever offers slightly more offset than the Classic style, making it the correct choice for builders seeking authentic '69-'73 Mustang proportions.

Whether you're restoring a numbers-matching Boss 302 or building a restomod with a modern TREMEC T5, T56, or TKX, this Competition/Plus lever delivers the iconic Hurst heritage and quality that performance enthusiasts have trusted for decades.

Description

Factory shift levers get the job done, but they rarely complement a custom interior or deliver the precise feel a performance build deserves. This billet aluminum shift lever from Bowler was purpose-built for the TREMEC enthusiast who demands both function and aesthetics. Machined from solid billet aluminum and finished in durable black anodize, it delivers the strength to handle aggressive shifts while adding a sleek, modern look to your cockpit.

The 30-degree kickback angle pulls the shift knob rearward and closer to the driver, improving reach and reducing fatigue during spirited driving or long cruises. At 10 inches tall, this lever strikes the ideal balance between throw reduction and mechanical advantage, giving you crisp gate engagement without requiring excessive effort. The industrial through-pocket design creates a rigid structure that eliminates flex under load, ensuring consistent shift feel whether you're rowing through traffic or banging gears at the track.

Installation is straightforward: the lever bolts directly to the standard 2-bolt flange found on TKO-500, TKO-600, TKX, and T56 transmissions using the included hardware. Mounting holes are spaced 0.890 inches center-to-center with 3/8-inch diameter.

Description

Factory TREMEC shift levers get the job done, but they lack the style and ergonomic refinement that a performance build deserves. This Bowler billet aluminum shift lever transforms your interior with precision-machined construction and a sleek brushed silver finish that complements both classic and modern builds.

The 30-degree kickback angle is the key ergonomic feature here. Rather than forcing your wrist into an awkward position during aggressive shifts, the angled design places your hand naturally where it wants to be. The result is faster, more comfortable gear changes with reduced fatigue during spirited driving or track sessions.

Machined from solid billet aluminum using an industrial through pocket design, this lever delivers exceptional strength without unnecessary weight. The through pocket construction removes material strategically, creating visual interest while maintaining the structural integrity needed for hard shifts. At 10" in length, the lever provides optimal leverage for crisp gear engagement without excessive throw.

Installation is straightforward with direct bolt-on compatibility for TKO-500, TKO-600, TKX, and T-56 transmissions using the standard 2-bolt mounting flange. Mounting holes are precision-machined to 0.890" center-to-center with 3/8" diameter for perfect alignment.

Description

Replace your worn or missing factory shift lever with this precision-machined Lokar billet aluminum unit. Whether you're building a TREMEC swap that didn't come with a lever or upgrading a tired stocker with sloppy engagement, this black anodized shift lever delivers the crisp, solid feel your manual transmission deserves.

The engineering details set this lever apart from cheaper alternatives. Machined from solid billet aluminum rather than cast or stamped, the lever body eliminates flex under aggressive shifting. The billet steel mounting stud provides a rock-solid foundation that won't strip threads or crack under stress - a common failure point on lesser designs. Lokar drills and countersinks the mounting holes so the included metric cap screws sit flush, giving you a clean, professional appearance without exposed fastener heads.

The 30-degree layback bend positions the shift ball naturally where your hand expects it. At 10.4" overall length with a 5" back x 10" tall geometry, this lever places the knob in an ergonomic location that reduces fatigue during spirited driving or long cruises. The standard 3/8"-16 thread at the top accepts the vast majority of aftermarket shift knobs, so you can personalize the look to match your interior.

Description

That cracked, torn, or UV-damaged shift boot in your Hurst-equipped '69-'70 Mustang isn't just ugly - it lets dirt, debris, and moisture into your shifter mechanism. This OEM-spec reproduction restores the factory look and function that Ford engineers intended when they designed the original. Built to Ford part number D0ZZ-7277-B specifications, it drops right in without modification.

The boot is manufactured from compression molded EPDM rubber, the same material used in original Ford production. EPDM holds up to temperature extremes, resists UV degradation, and won't crack or tear like cheap vinyl alternatives. The textured skin surface replicates the original factory finish exactly - no smooth, generic appearance that screams "aftermarket" to anyone who knows these cars.

An integrated steel insert is molded into the base, providing the same secure mounting as the original equipment boot. This steel reinforcement prevents the flexing and tearing that kills generic universal boots within a few months of use. The rectangular opening is sized specifically for Hurst's distinctive rectangular shifter lever - this is not a round-lever boot, and it won't work with factory Ford shifters or other aftermarket units.

Fits 1969-1970 Mustangs equipped with Hurst 4-speed shifters. For a complete console restoration, pair this boot with the matching OEM-style shift boot bezel, available separately (see MD-321-1062-B).

Description

A cracked, dried-out shift boot does more than look bad -- it lets dust, debris, and noise intrude into your classic Mustang's cabin every time you row through the gears. This Scott Drake reproduction shift boot restores the factory appearance and function with the same materials and construction Ford used originally.

The boot is compression molded from E.P.D.M. rubber, the same elastomer specified by Ford for its combination of heat resistance, flexibility, and long-term durability. The textured skin finish matches the original factory surface, so it looks correct whether you're building a concours restoration or a period-correct driver. An integrated steel insert mounting plate is molded into the base, providing solid attachment and simplifying installation -- no separate retainer to source.

Measuring 6-3/4" x 4-7/8" with a rectangle base shape and round center hole, this boot fits 1969-1973 Mustangs equipped with factory-style round shift levers and either 3-speed or 4-speed manual transmissions. Note that this boot will NOT fit Hurst shifter applications -- it's designed specifically for OEM-style lever configurations. Pair it with the matching chrome bezel (PN MD-321-1062-B, sold separately) for a complete, factory-correct restoration.

Scott Drake reproduction parts are manufactured to match original specifications, delivering the authentic details that separate a quality restoration from a parts-bin build. OE part number C9ZZ-7277-A.

The result is a show-quality appearance that complements everything from traditional street rods to resto-mod builds.

The engineering centers on a smart billet bezel design that sits atop the boot and fits over the shifter lever. A foam rubber seal underneath blocks airflow and road noise from entering through the floor opening - a critical comfort detail that cheaper boots ignore.

• Ford slip-in driven gear connection at transmission end
• Drop-in solution for five-speed and AOD conversions

Description

Swapping a T5, TKO, TKX, or AOD into your '69-'73 Mustang or Cougar means the stock speedometer cable won't reach or route correctly. This 63" speedometer cable delivers the correct length for proper routing from the transmission to your factory mechanical speedometer, eliminating the binding, kinking, or slack that comes with using a generic or incorrect-length cable.

The cable features OEM-style clip connections at the speedometer head, ensuring direct compatibility with your factory gauge cluster without modification. At the transmission end, the cable uses a Ford slip-in connection that interfaces with the driven gear housing on T5, TKO, TKX, and AOD transmissions. This is the correct cable for maintaining your mechanical speedometer function after a modern drivetrain swap.

Unlike screw-on or barrel-style cables used in other Mustang years, '69-'73 models require this clip-style termination. If you're running long-tube headers, consider wrapping the cable where it routes near the exhaust to protect it from heat.

What's Included

• 63" speedometer cable with clip-style speedometer connection
• Ford slip-in transmission connection

Key Features

• 16-tooth driven gear corrects speedometer accuracy for Ford manual transmission swaps
• Wine color coding for easy tooth count identification during installation and service
• Direct fit for Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions
• Precision-molded construction for smooth, reliable operation

Description

When you swap to a 5- or 6-speed transmission, your original speedometer gear won't work with the new final drive ratio, throwing off your speedometer readings. This 16-tooth driven gear provides the correct gear ratio match to restore accurate speedometer operation in Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum applications.

Selecting the correct driven gear depends on your rear axle ratio and tire diameter. The wine-colored housing provides instant visual confirmation of the 16-tooth count during installation and future service, eliminating guesswork when fine-tuning your speedometer calibration. Each tooth change adjusts the speedometer reading approximately 4-5 mph, so selecting the right gear for your combination is critical.

This is the correct driven gear for all Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions. Whether you're building a street machine that sees daily driving or a weekend cruiser that needs reliable instrumentation, this precision-molded gear delivers smooth, accurate speedometer operation mile after mile.

What's Included

• 16-tooth speedometer driven gear with wine-colored housing

Key Features

• 17-tooth driven gear with white color coding for easy identification
• Direct fit for Ford TREMEC transmissions: T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum
• Precision-molded plastic construction for smooth, quiet operation
• Lower tooth count for higher axle ratios and/or taller tires
• Works with cable-driven mechanical speedometer systems

Description

Swapping to a 5 or 6-speed TREMEC transmission changes your final drive ratio, which means your factory speedometer gear combination no longer reads accurately. This 17-tooth white driven gear lets you recalibrate your mechanical speedometer to match your new drivetrain setup.

Speedometer driven gear selection depends on four variables: drive gear tooth count (on the output shaft), driven gear tooth count, tire diameter, and axle ratio. The 17-tooth count is typically paired with lower-numerical axle ratios or taller tires. Use a speedometer gear calculator to determine the correct tooth count for your specific combination of drive gear, rear end ratio, and tire height.

The white color coding makes this gear instantly identifiable, both in your parts bin and during installation. This precision-molded plastic gear meshes smoothly with the transmission's output shaft drive gear, delivering reliable operation without the noise or wear issues that can plague poorly-manufactured replacements.

This driven gear fits all Ford TREMEC transmissions including T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum. Whether you're building a classic Mustang, Fairlane, or any Ford platform with a mechanical speedometer, this gear helps dial in accurate speed readings after your manual transmission conversion.

Kit Includes

• 17-tooth speedometer driven gear, white plastic

Speedometer Driven Gear | Ford T5/T45/TKO/TKX/Magnum | 18-Tooth Yellow

Key Features

• 18-tooth driven gear for speedometer calibration on Ford-pattern transmissions
• Yellow color-coded for quick identification during installation and service
• Fits Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions
• Precision molded for accurate tooth engagement and long service life
• Direct replacement--installs into existing speedometer drive housing without modification

Description

When you swap in a 5- or 6-speed manual transmission, your factory speedometer gear ratio goes out the window. The new transmission's final drive ratio won't mesh with your original speedo gear, leaving your speedometer reading inaccurately--sometimes wildly so. This 18-tooth yellow driven gear lets you dial in the correct speedometer calibration for your specific tire size and rear axle ratio combination.

This driven gear fits the full range of Ford-pattern TREMEC transmissions: T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum. The industry-standard yellow color coding makes identification simple--no guessing which tooth count you're running when it's time for service or recalibration after a gear ratio change. The precision-molded construction ensures consistent tooth engagement with the drive gear for accurate, reliable speedometer readings mile after mile.

Installation is straightforward--the gear slides directly into the transmission's speedometer drive housing. If your speedometer calibration calculations call for more than 21 teeth (the maximum available driven gear size), you'll need to reduce the drive gear tooth count instead. Use a speedometer gear calculator with your tire diameter, axle ratio, and transmission drive gear tooth count to determine the correct driven gear for your application.

Kit Includes

• 18-tooth yellow speedometer driven gear

Key Features

• 19-tooth driven gear for precise speedometer calibration
• Pink color-coded for instant tooth count identification
• Fits Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and TREMEC T56 Magnum transmissions
• Essential for correcting speedometer accuracy after gear ratio or tire size changes
• Precision molded construction for reliable, long-lasting operation

Description

When you swap transmissions, change rear axle ratios, or bolt on different tire sizes, your speedometer no longer reads correctly. This 19-tooth driven gear lets you recalibrate for accurate readings by changing the gear ratio between your transmission's output and the speedometer cable. It's the driven gear -- the one that mounts to the speedometer cable end and inserts into the transmission tailhousing.

The pink color follows Ford's standardized identification system, making it easy to confirm the tooth count at a glance when you're sorting through your parts bin or comparing against your current setup. If your speedometer reads too fast with your current gear, stepping up to this 19-tooth unit will slow the reading. Each additional tooth changes the speedometer reading by approximately 5-6%. If you need an even higher tooth count, 21-tooth is the largest available in the driven gear; beyond that, you'll need to reduce the drive gear size instead.

This gear fits all Ford T5, T45, and Ford T56 transmissions, as well as all TREMEC TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum units. Installation is straightforward: remove the speedometer cable from the tailhousing, swap the driven gear, and reinstall.

What's Included

• One 19-tooth speedometer driven gear (pink)

Key Features

• 20-tooth driven gear for precise speedometer calibration
• Black color-coded for easy identification per Ford specification
• Fits Ford T5, T45, Ford T56, TREMEC T56 Magnum, TKO, and TKX transmissions
• Direct replacement for worn or incorrect factory gears
• Precision-molded plastic construction for durability and accurate engagement

Description

Transmission swaps and axle gear changes throw off speedometer accuracy - this 20-tooth driven gear gets your needle reading true again. When you install a five- or six-speed manual, the final drive ratio no longer matches your original speedometer gear, leaving you guessing at your actual speed. The correct driven gear restores accurate instrumentation so you know exactly how fast you're going.

This precision-molded driven gear is color-coded black for 20-tooth identification, following the standard Ford speedometer gear system. It pairs with the 7-tooth drive gear found on TREMEC TKO 500, TKO 600, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions to dial in speedometer accuracy for specific tire and axle combinations. Calculate your correct tooth count based on your tire diameter and rear axle ratio - if your math points to 20 teeth, this is your gear.

Note that 21 tooth is the largest driven gear size available for these applications. If your calculations call for a larger tooth count beyond 21, reducing the drive gear size provides the necessary calibration adjustment. Compatible with all Ford T5, T45, Ford T56, TREMEC T56 Magnum, and all TKO and TKX variants.

What's Included

• One 20-tooth driven speedometer gear (black)

Key Features

• 21-tooth red gear follows Ford's factory color-coding system for manual transmissions
• Largest standard driven gear tooth count available for maximum speedometer correction
• Fits all TREMEC transmissions using Ford-style speedometer systems: T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum
• Precision molded nylon construction for smooth, quiet operation and long service life
• Direct drop-in replacement--no modifications required

Description

Swapping to a 5 or 6-speed TREMEC transmission changes your final drive ratio, which throws off your factory speedometer calibration. This 21-tooth red driven gear lets you recalibrate your mechanical speedometer to read accurately with your specific tire size and rear axle ratio combination--no electronic tuner required.

Ford has used a consistent color-coding system for manual transmission speedometer gears since the 1960s: 16-tooth wine, 17-tooth white, 18-tooth yellow, 19-tooth pink, 20-tooth black, and 21-tooth red. As the largest tooth count in the standard range, this red 21-tooth gear provides maximum correction for applications with taller tires or numerically higher axle ratios. Each tooth of difference adjusts your speedometer reading approximately 5-6%, so selecting the correct count is critical for accuracy.

The driven gear installs into the speedometer housing on the tailshaft of your transmission, where it meshes with the drive gear on the output shaft. TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions come from the factory with a 7-tooth drive gear, making this 21-tooth driven gear the correct starting point for common combinations like 3.55 or 3.73 rear gears with 26-inch or taller tires. Use a speedometer gear calculator with your actual tire diameter and axle ratio to confirm the correct tooth count for your build.

This gear is compatible with Ford T5, T45, TKO, TKX, and T56 Magnum transmissions. The driven gear works with both cable-driven and VSS-equipped speedometer systems--just swap it into your existing housing.

What's Included

• 21-tooth red speedometer driven gear (precision molded nylon)

Key Features

• Secures driven speedometer gear for proper placement and operation in Ford T5 transmissions
• Direct replacement for original clips that have become brittle from heat exposure
• Essential component for automatic-to-manual conversions where no clip exists
• Compatible with all Ford T5 transmissions

Description

Clip-style speedometer gears require a retaining clip to lock the driven gear securely in the transmission housing, and this replacement clip delivers the secure fit your Ford T5 needs. Without a properly functioning clip, the driven speedometer gear can back out of the housing during operation, causing inaccurate speedometer readings and potential fluid loss.

Original retaining clips often become brittle after years of heat cycling in the transmission environment. If you're servicing your Ford T5, T-45, T-56, TKO/TKX, and Magnum speedometer gear or coming from an automatic transmission that didn't use a mechanical speedometer setup, a new retaining clip ensures your driven gear stays exactly where it needs to be. This is an inexpensive detail that makes the difference between a speedometer that works reliably and one that gives you trouble down the road.

This clip is the correct fitment for all Ford T5 transmissions and works with standard Ford-style driven speedometer gears. Keep one on hand whenever you're doing speedo gear service work.

What's Included

• One (1) retaining clip for Ford driven speedometer gear

Key Features

• Direct-fit connector for Ford T5, all TKO variants, TKX, and T56 transmissions equipped with two-prong round body reverse switches

Description

Modern manual transmissions feature complex internal components -- multiple gear sets, clutch packs and narrow oil passageways -- that demand a steady supply of high-quality fluid to function properly. Without it, wear and sludge formation can lead to reduced performance and even catastrophic failure requiring thousands of dollars in repairs. This AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid delivers the Dexron III specification required by TREMEC transmissions while providing protection that exceeds conventional fluids.

In both normal and severe service, this synthetic ATF resists wear to the transmission's valve body, gears, clutch plates and synchronizers, helping your TREMEC achieve long service life. The thermally stable formulation guards against the harmful effects of thermal breakdown in elevated heat conditions, while resisting heat-related evaporation and viscosity loss to keep internal components clean and protected.

Formulated with friction modifiers that promote fast, smooth clutch engagement, this fluid delivers responsive shift feel and efficient torque transfer. It remains fluid in sub-zero temperatures, resisting thickening and flowing quickly for reliable shifts during cold starts. The excellent low-temperature fluidity also maximizes fuel efficiency. Seal conditioners help guard against leaks at input shaft seals and other critical points.

TREMEC TKX transmissions use Dexron III or Dexron III/Mercon specification ATF fluid, and Dexron III ATF is also recommended for T56 and TR3650 models. The T5, TKO and TKX five-speed transmissions require approximately 2.75 quarts, while six-speed Magnum transmissions require approximately 3.45 quarts. TREMEC recommends changing fluid after the initial 500-1000 mile break-in period, then every 30,000 miles thereafter.

What's Included

Description

Swapping a Ford T5 five-speed into your '67-'73 Mustang or Cougar means ditching that worn-out 3-speed for modern overdrive cruising - but you need a crossmember that positions the transmission correctly while leaving room for your exhaust. Many budget crossmembers use thin-wall exhaust tubing that compromises both strength and clearance. This crossmember solves that problem with a proper engineering approach that delivers maximum exhaust room without sacrificing structural integrity.

MDL builds this crossmember from laser-cut steel that is CNC bent to exacting tolerances - not cobbled together from bent tubing. This manufacturing process ensures a perfect fit every time and provides the solid construction your drivetrain demands. The design maximizes exhaust clearance so you can run the headers and exhaust system you want without fighting for space. At the same time, the stock-like appearance keeps your chassis looking factory-correct rather than obviously modified.

Installation is straightforward: this crossmember bolts to the factory sub-frame mounting points and works with your original 1965-1973 Ford transmission mount. The design accommodates convertible applications, so drop-top owners are covered. Whether you are running a World Class T5 from a late-model Mustang or a TREMEC-built unit, this crossmember provides the foundation for a clean, professional five-speed swap.

Direct replacement for 1967-73 Ford Mustang applications with 1983-1993 Ford T5 transmissions. Works with both hardtop and convertible body styles. Made in the USA with lifetime technical support from MDL.

Description

The slip yoke is the critical link between your transmission output shaft and driveshaft - it has to match both ends perfectly or you're fighting vibration, binding, or accelerated wear. This Neapco 28-spline slip yoke solves the compatibility challenge for Ford drivetrains running T5 manual, C4 automatic, Toploader 4-speed, AOD, or AODE transmissions with 1310 series driveshafts.

At 6" overall length, this is the short variant designed for applications where existing driveshaft length is correct or close to correct. The cast steel body handles the torque demands of modified Ford powertrains while maintaining precise spline engagement with the transmission output shaft. The 1-1/16" bearing cap diameter fits standard 1310 series universal joints, making driveshaft service and U-joint replacement straightforward.

One detail you'll notice: there's a single tooth intentionally missing from the spline. This isn't a defect - it's engineered to allow transmission fluid to circulate freely within the yoke, preventing hydraulic lock and ensuring smooth operation. Neapco builds these yokes to tight tolerances for vibration-free performance.

A critical note for T5 conversions: if you're swapping from a C4 automatic or Toploader 4-speed, your existing driveshaft can often be reused if it's in good condition. However, C4 and Toploader driveshafts are typically too long for T5 applications and require cutting, re-welding, and rebalancing. Do not use this short yoke expecting it to compensate for incorrect driveshaft length - get the geometry right first. MDL provides a measuring guide to help you determine proper driveshaft dimensions for your application.
