RE: Borg Warner T10 Question

[v8magic@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Take a look at the link below for some info on the T-85 3-speed and the 
T-10 4-speed both from Borg Warner. The T-85 was very beefy and heavy. 
It did not have a syncronized first gear. The T-10 was developed from 
the T-85, but it was not as rugged. It did well for chevys, fords and 
the like, but big block Mopar power required a lot more strength.

The original T-10 had an aluminum case, but the later "Super T-10 had a 
much stronger steel case. GM used the Muncie as a replacement for the 
early T-10. My '64 GTO had a Muncie 4-speed that worked quite well for 
me, but the biggest engine that I put in front of it was a '65 421 out 
of a Pontiac 2+2. Max Wedges and Hemi were just way too tough for any of 
those.

I had a couple of cars with the T-85 overdrive and loved that trans 
except for having to do the old double clutch to down shift into first 
as I rolled through a corner.
