Overview

If you are making over 400 horsepower and need to upgrade from a tired four-speed, the TREMEC TKX delivers everything your Ford build demands. Unlike repurposed OE transmissions, the TKX was engineered from the ground up specifically for the aftermarket - designed to handle serious power while fitting into classic Mustangs and other vintage Fords without the floor surgery typically required by larger transmissions.

The end-loaded case design is the key to the TKX's compact footprint. TREMEC eliminated the traditional side-loading architecture, resulting in a slimmer, more streamlined case that clears tight transmission tunnels. The three-piece ribbed aluminum housing (main case, intermediate plate, and rear extension) delivers outstanding structural stiffness while reducing overall weight to just 99 lbs dry. Fewer case seams mean fewer potential leak points, and gaskets at all flanges simplify installation.

Inside, the TKX punches well above its weight class. Wide gear widths increase gear life and torque capacity, while tapered roller bearings on the input, output, and countershafts reduce noise and improve durability. Caged needle bearings on the mainshaft optimize performance at all gear positions. The internal three-rail shift system provides robust, precise gear engagement, and the rear mainshaft support bushing has been relocated closer to the gearbox for improved support. Hybrid triple-cone synchronizers made from sintered bronze and carbon deliver smooth, notch-free shifts even at 7,500 RPM.

This close-ratio configuration (2.87 first gear with 0.68 overdrive) keeps your engine in its powerband during spirited driving while dropping highway RPM for improved fuel economy and reduced wear. Short input shaft kits are available for Ford 3-speed and 4-speed bellhousing applications. Made from 100% brand-new OEM-quality components.

Description

Swapping a TREMEC TKX into your '68-'69 Camaro or Firebird means dealing with a common problem: the stock TKX shifter doesn't put the stick where your factory console expects it. The Qwik Stik solves this with a precision-engineered offset that repositions the shifter 1" left, .65" or 1.15" backward--placing it exactly where your original Muncie 4-speed location was. The result is a proper console-mounted shifter that looks and feels like it belongs there.

The compact turret design is specifically sized to clear the restrictive tunnel openings in first-gen F-bodies without cutting sheet metal. Machined from billet aluminum and anodized for long-term corrosion resistance, this shifter mounts directly to the TKX's rear case position. Belleville washers replace traditional spring-loaded detents, delivering that crisp mechanical engagement feel that matters most on the critical 2-3 upshift. Unlike stock shifters with plastic or stamped metal stops that break under hard use, the Qwik Stik's no-stops design means nothing to wear out or replace--and when service time comes, access is straightforward.

The 7/8" on-center mounting pattern accepts most aftermarket shift levers, so you can run your preferred stick with your factory boot and knob. A high-temperature dust boot keeps transmission fluid contained and road debris out. This is a close-ratio short-throw shifter built for enthusiasts who expect quick, precise shifts from their TKX. Proudly crafted 100% in the USA at MDL's Caldwell, Idaho facility.

Description

Upgrading your Ford Modular V8 to a TREMEC 5-speed? Factory Ford transmissions use a different bolt pattern than TREMEC units, making a proper bellhousing essential for any modular-to-TREMEC conversion. This Ford Performance cast aluminum bellhousing (M-6392-M46 / TREMEC TCCM1899) provides direct bolt-up compatibility between 4.6L, 5.0L 4V Ti-VCT, and 5.4L modular engines and TREMEC 3550, TKO-500, TKO-600, or TKX transmissions - no cutting, grinding, or adapter plates required.

Cast aluminum construction keeps weight down while maintaining OEM-level durability for street builds. All factory mounting positions are retained for straightforward installation, though minor modifications may be required for transmission clearance in some vehicle applications. The 7:00 o'clock fork opening position provides optimal clearance around long tube headers while maintaining proper clutch geometry.

This bellhousing supports multiple clutch actuation methods. Factory cable setups bolt right in, while internal hydraulic throwout bearings and external slave cylinders mount without modification. Whether you're building a street cruiser or track car, the versatility accommodates your preferred clutch release system.

Requires block plate MD-401-1106 for complete installation. Can also be used with Ford Performance starter index plate M-7007-A, clutch release lever M-7515-A, and bellhousing installation kit M-7771-A. Made in the USA with Ford Performance quality standards.

Description

When you're mating a Ford Modular engine to a TREMEC transmission, the bellhousing is the critical link that determines whether your drivetrain operates with precision or suffers from alignment issues that accelerate wear on input shaft bearings, pilot bushings, and clutch components. This QuickTime bellhousing eliminates those problems with spun steel cone construction that delivers dimensional accuracy lesser housings simply cannot match.

Unlike stamped or rolled bellhousings that can flex under load and lose concentricity, QuickTime's proprietary spin-forming process produces a cone that work-hardens to over 80,000 PSI - more than twice the strength of other steel bellhousings. That strength-to-weight ratio allows QuickTime to deliver a 20-pound bellhousing that keeps your engine and transmission in perfect alignment throughout the entire RPM range. The result is reduced drivetrain wear, smoother clutch engagement, and improved power transfer.

This bellhousing connects 4.6L, 5.0L (Coyote), 5.4L, 5.8L, and 6.2L Ford Modular engines to Ford TKX, TKO 500-600, TR3550, and T5 Mustang transmissions. With 6.925 inches of depth, it clears 164-tooth flywheels paired with 11-inch clutches. The universal transmission bore (4.685/4.910 inches) ensures proper fit across the supported transmission range. Universal shifter fork brackets work with both diaphragm and cable-operated linkage.

QuickTime was founded by former race car driver Ross McCombs, who developed his own bellhousings to withstand the rigors of dirt track racing. That racing DNA shows in every detail - from the patent-pending 16-point design to the Grade 8 hardware included with every kit. For SFI-certified applications, see part numbers RM-6081 and RM-6082.

Description

Proper starter-to-flywheel alignment is non-negotiable on Ford Modular engines running manual transmissions. Misalignment causes grinding engagement, premature starter failure, and ring gear damage - problems that only get worse over time. This steel starter index plate solves the issue by positioning the starter precisely where it needs to be for clean, consistent engagement every time.

The plate installs between the engine block and bellhousing, indexing the starter to ensure optimal starter drive to flywheel ring gear alignment. Built from 0.080-inch steel, the plate provides the strength needed to help contain flywheel or clutch breakage while maintaining that critical starter position under all operating conditions. The steel construction also protects the engine block face from direct contact with the bellhousing.

Engineered specifically for Ford Modular 4.6L, 5.0L Coyote, and 5.4L engines, this plate works with aluminum bellhousings for T45, 3650, and T56 Magnum transmissions. Installation is straightforward bolt-on - no modifications to the bellhousing or engine block required. Equivalent to Ford Racing M-7007-A, so you get OEM-spec fitment and performance. Note: Does not fit the Ford GT supercar application.

What's Included

• Steel starter index plate (0.080-inch thick, natural finish)

Key Features

Description

Factory T-5 and stock Ford transmission hardware won't work when you're bolting a TREMEC TKX to a modular aluminum bellhousing - the bolt lengths are simply wrong for the application. This dedicated hardware kit solves that problem by providing transmission-to-bellhousing bolts engineered specifically for the aluminum bellhousing interface found on Ford modular engine conversions.

Why does bellhousing material matter for bolt selection? Aluminum bellhousings have different flange thicknesses than their steel counterparts, requiring specific bolt lengths to achieve proper thread engagement without bottoming out. Using the wrong hardware risks either inadequate clamping force or mechanical interference - neither of which you want in a drivetrain connection.

This kit is designed to complement Ford modular aluminum bellhousings (like the Ford Performance M-6392-M46) when paired with a TREMEC TKX transmission. Note that some bellhousing manufacturers include transmission-to-bellhousing bolts with their bellhousing - in those cases, this kit provides the remaining hardware your installation requires. If you're running a steel bellhousing, see our steel bellhousing hardware kit instead.

What's Included

• Transmission-to-bellhousing mounting bolts (aluminum bellhousing specific lengths)

Key Features

• Bolt lengths sized specifically for steel bellhousing applications - not interchangeable with aluminum bellhousing hardware
• Grade 8 steel construction for maximum clamping force and durability
• Hardened washers included for proper load distribution across mounting surfaces
• Complete hardware set for attaching Ford TKX transmission to steel bellhousings
• Compatible with QuickTime and Lakewood steel scatter shields for Ford applications
• Made in the USA

Description

When upgrading to a TREMEC TKX 5-speed transmission, factory T5 transmission-to-bellhousing bolts are incompatible with TKX applications. This hardware kit provides the correct bolt lengths and grade specifically engineered for steel bellhousing installations on Ford applications. Steel bellhousings require different bolt lengths than aluminum bellhousing kits - using the wrong hardware can result in improper engagement, case damage, or unsafe mounting conditions.

This MDL hardware kit solves the sourcing headache by providing the exact fasteners needed for your steel bellhousing installation. The Grade 8 bolts deliver the clamping force necessary to handle the TKX's 600 lb-ft torque capacity, while hardened washers ensure even load distribution across the bellhousing mounting flange. Proper hardware is critical - never use transmission-to-bellhousing bolts to draw or pull the transmission up to the bellhousing, as damage to the pilot bearing and transmission case ears may result.

This kit is designed for use with popular steel scatter shields including QuickTime and Lakewood bellhousings for Ford small block applications paired with the TKX transmission. When installing, ensure the transmission is fully seated by hand against the bellhousing before torquing fasteners to specification. Made in the USA with lifetime tech support from MDL.

Description

When your build pushes past 500hp and you still want to drive it on the street, single-disc clutches start showing their limits. The McLeod RXT twin disc clutch kit delivers 1,000hp holding capacity in a package that maintains street manners - soft pedal effort, smooth engagement, and the kind of durability that lets you drive to the track, run quarter-mile passes, and drive home without drama.

The engineering centers on dual ceramic friction discs mounted to a Blanchard ground floater plate. The ceramic facings provide slightly aggressive engagement with excellent release characteristics - enough grip for serious power without the on-off grabbiness that makes some racing clutches miserable in traffic. The floater plate distributes heat across both friction surfaces, preventing the hot spots that kill single-disc setups under sustained abuse. McLeod's diaphragm pressure plate maintains consistent clamping force throughout the disc's lifespan while actually delivering lighter-than-stock pedal effort.

This kit uses McLeod's patent-pending large gold metric adapter ring, eliminating the need for a dedicated flywheel. The adapter ring bolts directly to flat-style metric flywheels found on Ford 164T Modular engines (4.6L, 5.0L Coyote, 5.4L) and GM 168T LS1/LS6 applications. Critical note: this kit will NOT fit factory 2011-17 Coyote flywheels, recessed LS2/LS3/LS7 flywheels, or flywheels with crank reliefs larger than 6.250 inches in diameter. The 1-1/8-inch x 26-spline input shaft fits T-45, TR-3650, T-56, TR-6060, and TREMEC Magnum transmissions with 26-spline inputs.

Break-in requires 500-750 miles of stop-and-go city driving to properly seat the friction surfaces - no drag racing or dyno pulls until you've actuated the clutch 1,200-1,500 times. Always resurface the flywheel with a coarse stone-ground finish, replace the pilot bearing, and verify bellhousing alignment during installation. This kit does not include a pilot bearing or throwout bearing.

Description

Converting your '64.5–'66 Mustang to hydraulic clutch actuation eliminates the binding, inconsistent engagement, and heavy pedal effort that plague mechanical rod linkage systems. The MDL LF Series Master Cylinder Kit delivers modern hydraulic precision while preserving the stock pedal feel you expect from a classic Mustang.

The engineering breakthrough is in the innovative pedal linkage design. Traditional hydraulic conversions bolt a 3/4" or 7/8" bore master cylinder directly to the pedal, requiring high mounting positions that interfere with firewall components and create punishing pedal effort due to short stroke lengths. MDL's revolutionary linkage system allows the 0.700" bore, 1.4" stroke master cylinder to mount in the optimal position while matching pedal travel to master cylinder stroke. This creates mechanical advantage that dramatically reduces pedal effort while generating 0.539 cubic inches of fluid volume—enough to actuate any aftermarket external slave cylinder or internal hydraulic release bearing.

The remote plastic reservoir mounts cleanly on the firewall, eliminating the packaging constraints of integral reservoir designs. The system uses DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid and includes MDL's complete One-Man-Bleeder Kit for foolproof hydraulic system setup. Installation uses the existing clutch rod hole where possible, preserving the firewall integrity of your classic Mustang.

Important Note: Will NOT work with band-clamp brake boosters or certain aftermarket brake boosters 8" and larger. This kit relies on factory pedal and firewall components to be in good working condition—any modifications or damage to the firewall, pedal, or pedal hanger will affect master cylinder performance.

Kit Includes

• 0.700" bore x 1.4" stroke master cylinder assembly
• Innovative pedal linkage system with mounting hardware
• Remote plastic reservoir with mounting hardware
• Hydraulic lines and fittings
• Complete One-Man-Bleeder Kit
• All mounting brackets and hardware

LF Series Hydraulic Clutch Master Kit | 1965-1966 Mustang/Cougar | Black Billet

Key Features

• Revolutionary pedal linkage design creates mechanical advantage for dramatically reduced clutch pedal effort
• Long-stroke, small-bore design: 0.700-inch bore x 1.4-inch stroke generates adequate fluid volume for most slave cylinders
• Maintains stock clutch pedal pivot point for familiar, factory-like pedal feel
• Optimizes full pedal stroke for precise clutch modulation and control
• Black anodized billet aluminum reservoir mounts remotely on firewall for clean installation
• Compatible with most internal hydraulic release bearings and external slave cylinders
• Does NOT mount in original clutch rod hole location—provides clearance for aftermarket braking systems
• Made in the USA

Description

Converting your '65-'66 Mustang or Cougar to hydraulic clutch actuation—or upgrading from a tired mechanical linkage—typically means fighting heavy pedal pressure and firewall clearance problems. The conventional approach mounts a short-stroke 3/4-inch or 7/8-inch bore master cylinder directly to the pedal, which creates excessive pedal load and often requires raising the mounting point higher than the stock clutch rod hole. That causes interference with the firewall and pedal assembly while delivering a heavy, unpleasant pedal feel.

The MDL LF Series Master Cylinder Kit solves these problems with a fundamentally different approach. Instead of a direct-mount cylinder, this system uses an innovative pedal linkage that creates mechanical leverage between the clutch pedal and a long-stroke, small-bore master cylinder. The 0.700-inch bore combined with a 1.4-inch stroke generates the fluid volume required by today's internal and external slave systems while the linkage design dramatically reduces the force required at the pedal. The result is a light, progressive pedal feel that maintains the stock pivot point—your foot goes where it always did, but the effort drops significantly.

The black anodized billet aluminum reservoir mounts separately on the firewall, keeping the engine bay clean and providing installation flexibility. Because the system does not use the original clutch rod hole location, it creates additional clearance for aftermarket brake boosters and upgraded braking components—a common conflict point in resto-mod builds. The complete kit works with factory clutch pedals and quality OE reproduction aftermarket pedals.

Every kit ships with MDL's exclusive One-Man-Bleeder Kit for simplified installation and proper system bleeding. Uses DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid. Designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA with lifetime technical support included.

• Made in the USA

Description

Converting your '65-'66 Mustang or Cougar to a T-5, TKX, or T-56 manual transmission means dealing with clutch actuation -- and the common retrofit approach creates problems. Most setups use a 3/4-inch or 7/8-inch bore master cylinder with a 1-inch stroke mounted directly to the pedal. This combination produces heavy pedal pressure, and the cylinder mounting position often interferes with the firewall and pedal assembly. The MDL LF Series solves both problems with an innovative linkage design that changes the equation.

The revolutionary linkage system maintains your stock clutch pedal pivot point while creating mechanical advantage through proper geometry. Instead of fighting a short-stroke, large-bore cylinder that loads the firewall heavily, the LF Series uses a 0.700-inch bore with a 1.4-inch stroke -- generating the fluid volume needed to operate your slave cylinder while keeping pedal loads manageable. The linkage allows design flexibility and does not mount in the original clutch rod hole location, giving you clearance for aftermarket brake boosters and other firewall modifications.

The clear anodized billet aluminum reservoir mounts separately on the firewall for a clean installation that does not crowd the pedal area. The 0.700-inch bore and 1.4-inch stroke combination delivers sufficient fluid displacement to operate most aftermarket external slave cylinders and internal hydraulic release bearings. The kit works with your factory clutch pedal or OE reproduction aftermarket pedal -- no pedal modifications required.

Important: This kit will NOT work with band-clamp brake boosters or certain aftermarket brake boosters 8 inches and larger. The system requires factory firewall, pedal, and pedal hanger components to be in good working order. Use DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid only. Made in the USA with comprehensive installation instructions and lifetime technical support.

Description

Hydraulic clutch systems demand leak-free, pressure-resistant fluid lines that won't degrade over time or expand under load. This 24-inch stainless steel braided line delivers the durability and consistent pedal feel that separates a professional hydraulic clutch installation from a compromise. The PTFE (Teflon) inner lining provides excellent chemical compatibility with all common hydraulic fluids while resisting the swelling and deterioration that plague standard rubber lines.

The stainless steel braided construction prevents expansion under pressure, maintaining a firm, responsive clutch pedal. Unlike rubber hoses that can balloon and soften pedal feel, stainless braided PTFE lines keep the inner diameter uniform for efficient fluid transfer. The clear plastic outer coating shields the braid from abrasion, contamination, and corrosion while letting you visually inspect line condition at a glance.

At 24 inches with a 1/4-inch I.D., this line is sized specifically for hydraulic clutch applications. It's an excellent choice when pairing a Tilton 6000 HRB with an -4AN male union to a firewall-mounted or bulkhead-mounted master cylinder. The straight -4AN female fittings on both ends connect directly to standard -4AN male adapters without additional fittings, reducing potential leak points and simplifying installation.

Description

Installing a clutch pedal in an early Mustang usually means contorting yourself under the dash to remove the pedal support - a frustrating job in a cramped footwell. This reproduction clutch pedal solves that problem with a removable pivot shaft that bolts into place, letting you install the pedal without disturbing the factory pedal support. It is a simple engineering improvement to an otherwise stock-style pedal that saves real time on auto-to-manual conversions.

The pedal works with all factory pedal supports, whether your car started life as an automatic or manual. For automatic conversions, there is no need to source a separate manual brake pedal - simply trim the left side of your existing automatic brake pedal pad using the manual pad as a template. This approach reuses your factory mounting points and keeps the conversion straightforward.

Laser-cut from steel with CNC bends, this pedal duplicates the original geometry while delivering the precision fit and clean lines you expect from a quality reproduction. The black powder coat finish protects against corrosion and daily wear. Note that when using with clutch cable or hydraulic release systems, the pedal spring is not used.

Fits 1964-1/2 through 1966 Mustang. This is a reproduction pedal engineered to replace the original equipment part. Made in the USA.

What's Included

• Clutch pedal assembly with removable pivot shaft
• Pedal spring pivot point
• Black powder coat finish
• Lifetime tech support

Key Features

• Essential component for automatic-to-manual transmission conversions
• Bolts directly to left side of pedal support assembly
• Prevents clutch pedal over-travel and binding
• Complete mounting hardware included -- bolt and nut
• Precise fit for 1965-66 Mustang, 1962-66 Fairlane, and 1960-61 Galaxie

Description

Converting from automatic to manual transmission requires more than just swapping the gearbox -- the clutch pedal needs a proper stop point to function correctly. Automatic-equipped cars never came with this component because they had no clutch pedal, so when you add one during a conversion, you need a way to limit pedal travel at the top of its stroke. This MDL clutch pedal stop provides exactly that: a solid mechanical stop that positions the clutch pedal at the correct rest position for proper master cylinder operation and smooth clutch release.

The stop assembly mounts to the left side of the pedal support bracket, placing it in the exact position to contact the clutch pedal arm at full extension. Without proper pedal travel control, clutch systems can feel spongy, fail to return smoothly, or cause premature wear on linkage and hydraulic components. This component eliminates those issues by providing a consistent, repeatable stop point that keeps the clutch system geometry correct.

Designed specifically for mid-1960s Ford applications where automatic-to-manual swaps are common. The stop works with both mechanical Z-bar linkage and hydraulic clutch systems, making it compatible with period-correct restorations and modern conversion kits alike. Installation is straightforward -- no drilling, cutting, or fabrication required.

Applications include 1965-66 Mustang, 1962-66 Fairlane, and 1960-61 Galaxie models originally equipped with automatic transmissions.

What's Included

• Clutch pedal stop assembly
• Mounting bolt
• Mounting nut

Whether you're finishing a concours-quality restoration or building a street machine that gets driven hard, this shift ball combines authentic styling with materials engineered to handle real-world abuse.

The 5-speed pattern graphics are subsurface-engraved into the black polymer resin, meaning they cannot wear off no matter how many miles you log. Unlike painted or printed shift knobs that fade and flake over time, this pattern stays crisp for the life of the knob. The high-impact polymer resin is specifically formulated to meet performance-level torque and temperature requirements without developing stress cracks as it ages.

Underneath the show-quality exterior, a brass master insert provides the structural backbone. This insert exceeds automotive industry specifications of 200 lb/ft static pull and 20 lb/ft twist torque, giving you the confidence to bang through gears without worrying about thread failure.

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.

• Compatible with MDL thread reducing inserts for virtually any shift lever thread size
• Polished high-gloss finish for durability and professional appearance
• Made in the USA

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.

• Compatible with thread reducers for adapting to other shifter thread sizes
• Made in the USA

Description

Slamming into reverse at speed is a quick way to grenade a gearbox. This 5-speed shift ball eliminates that risk with an integrated side-mounted push button lockout that requires deliberate activation before reverse can be selected. The button includes wiring for connection to various shifter configurations that utilize electronic or mechanical reverse lockout functionality.

The ball itself is built from specially formulated high-impact polymer resin designed specifically for the automotive industry. Unlike cheap plastic knobs that crack under stress or go chalky from heat cycles, this material resists stress cracking with age while handling the torque and temperature swings of hard driving. The 1-7/8" diameter provides solid palm contact for confident shifting, and the polished white finish cleans up easily.

Mounting uses a 16mm x 1.50 brass master insert with an included brass jam nut. This thread size is common on 1982-2002 Camaro and Firebird shifters, Pontiac Fiero applications, and various aftermarket shifters. For other thread sizes, pair this shift ball with MDL thread reducers to adapt down to your specific shifter requirements.

Made in the USA from a manufacturer that has been producing quality shift knobs for decades.

This 5-speed black shift ball puts a side-mounted momentary push button exactly where your thumb naturally rests, giving you instant access to nitrous activation, line lock, or other electrical accessories without fumbling for a dashboard switch or console button.

The side-mount placement is intentional: unlike top-mounted buttons that can be accidentally triggered during aggressive shifts, this configuration requires deliberate engagement. The included 18" wire harness gives you plenty of length to route to your relay or control module, with terminals ready for connection. Whether you're staging at the strip or wiring in a secondary system, the button is right there when you need it.

Built from black polymer resin, this 2-1/8" diameter shift ball delivers comfortable ergonomics for extended driving sessions while standing up to the abuse of street and track duty. The 16mm x 1.5 threads are the industry-standard size for shift knob adapters, which means you can pair this ball with MDL's thread reducing inserts to fit virtually any shift lever thread pitch -- from 3/8"-16 to 5/16"-18 and beyond.

Perfect for street/strip builds, drag applications, or any 5-speed manual transmission setup where you need reliable switch control at your fingertips.

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

• 16-pulse Hall effect sensor delivers 16,000 pulses-per-mile output for accurate electronic speedometer calibration
• Direct bolt-in fitment for Ford gear drive TKO and TKX transmissions
• Three-wire design with included 10-foot pigtail harness for flexible routing and clean signal transmission
• Allen-head mounting bolt provides body clearance in tight transmission tunnel applications
• Uses standard T5 driven speedometer gears - no adapter required for low-profile installation.
• Compatible with Ford T-5, T-45, TR3550, 5-speed and 6-speed Ford T-56, and Magnum transmissions (requires Ford-driven speedometer gears and retainer clip)

Description

Swapping to a TKO or TKX five-speed means ditching the factory mechanical speedometer cable - but your electronic dash, engine management system, or cruise control still needs a reliable speed signal. This digital speedometer sensor plugs directly into the Ford-style VSS port on your TREMEC transmission's passenger-side tail housing and delivers a clean 16-pulse signal that works with the industry-standard 16,000 pulses-per-mile input most aftermarket speedometers and ECUs expect.

The three-wire Hall effect design provides a stable square wave output that won't degrade over long wire runs. The included 10-foot pigtail harness gives you plenty of length to route wiring cleanly through the tunnel and up to your dash or ECU, with a three-pin connector for easy hookup. The Allen-head mounting bolt is a thoughtful detail - standard hex-head fasteners can interfere with the sensor body in tight quarters, so this design ensures proper installation without clearance issues.

Beyond the TKO and TKX, this sensor also works with T-5z 5-speed and 6-speed Magnum transmissions when paired with Ford-driven speedometer gears and a retainer clip. Note that it does not fit Super Magnum, Magnum XL, or Magnum F transmissions - those use a different VSS configuration. If you're running a Dakota Digital, Classic Instruments, Auto Meter, or other programmable electronic speedometer, this sensor's 16,000 PPM output drops right into their standard calibration range.

What's Included

• 16-pulse digital speedometer sensor with three-pin connector

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.
