A Paul Cangialosi has been working on transmissions for more than 30 years. To say he knows a thing or 2 about transmissions would be beyond understatement. When Paul stopped by the shop to help rebuild the T5 that will be going into my 1979 Fairmont, he asked if I'd like to hear more about the history of the transmission. Of course I said yes and you now have this video covering the history of the longest running manual transmission ever.

The T5 was about the best shifting transmission ever. Hundreds of engineering hours were spent on the shape of the ramps between the detents in the guide plate and the angles of the slot (see US Patent 4,338,828, invented by my boss, Hap Ruhlman). It shifted so well that it was too easy to miss 3rd and hit 1st gear when downshifting from 5th and shred the clutch plate. The guide plate or the lever, with its copper (or was it bronze) impregnated "football" was powdered metal part of the year in the middle of the '80s. The T5 was also in the Nissan 300ZX.

@philipmacduffie7612 8 лет назад

@@niteenkant7273 Commodore. I cannot remember the different V's, but they used NWC behind the V8s in the same Era as the F-Body in the US. They went WC with Ford Mainshafts later behind the V6 (they were Cobra/Z mainshafts in some). Those later tail housings are dimensionally identical to the Nissan/Ford Sierra ones, including a Ford shifter. I have a few along with a couple Falcon ones. The Australian housings are square while the Mustang is ~6° tilted and the F-Body is ~17° tilted.

Ford Australia had T5's in the Falcons. But we didn't get the World Class unit 'til around 1994 with the EF. Had a standard and world class unit in my '93 XR6. Standard was ok until the input shaft bearing got noisy. World class had better ratios and syncro on reverse.

my Ford falcon xr6 turbo in Australia had a t5z from the factory. anyway I did some minor engine performance enhancements and ended up blowing up this box. same thing has happened to dozens of falcon owners in Australia. from 2005 onwards Ford stopped using the t5 and went to the much stronger t56

@davidb.fishburn9338 7 лет назад

Paul Cangialosi , just saw this video, did'nt know of it til a little while ago. You said that it has been around since about 1981. Is it based on the four speed that were in the Mustangs before that? I had two Mustangs, a 1974 and a 1975 that had four speeds that look very similar to the T5. Watched your rebuild of Eric's T5, i say that it was very interesting and well done.

Hey Eric howCome Ford never used this gearbox in the f150 series trucks? So far my m5od has been bulletproofSo not knocking the Mazda 5 speed

@ericthecarguy 8 лет назад

+JEREMY FOUNTAIN (THEMOWERMEDIC1) I suppose because it's easier just to purchase the drivetrain from one place. Likely, the other transmission is cheaper to produce. If you ever wonder why car companies do things, just look to what it costs them to produce.

@THEMOWERMEDIC1 8 лет назад

+EricTheCarGuy cheap is right. They say when the m5od shells out it ain't worth a rebuild. You can buy the complete unit cheaper than a rebuild of similar transmission. Hey thanks for rhe quick response and good Morning to ya. It's Friday!

@ericthecarguy 8 лет назад

+JEREMY FOUNTAIN (THEMOWERMEDIC1) If it's anything like the T-5, it may also have to do with the tail shaft bushing. They're machined in place and can't be replaced without replacing the entire tail housing. We cover this in the rebuild video.

@GearBoxVideo 8 лет назад

+JEREMY FOUNTAIN (THEMOWERMEDIC1) Its a passenger car transmission not designed for truck use. Light truck use such as a GM S10 was about it. Ford needed something more robust that can handle a pickup bed loaded with some weight with a low first gear. So the T18 T19 or T170's were a better fit.

@MikesFitnessGoals 8 лет назад

How much power can a T5 handle?

@GearBoxVideo 8 лет назад

+Mike McMac Torque ratings are hard to gauge because transmissions are old and are used. Used gears can be subject to many levels of abuse or normal driving. The T5 was purchased by automakers based on intended use and nothing more. They don't buy a transmission for a 6clyinder application and think about how the transmission will be used in other applications. So if you have a car that comes with a T5 from the factory couples with a 300HP engine producing 300 Ft Lbs of torque with a specific rear gear, then that is what it is rated for,

@jeepmanxj 8 лет назад

+GearBoxVideo That is not exactly true. When something like this is designed, its designed to be as compatible as possible so may indeed have far higher power limits than its factory use. If a transmission is going to be application specific, yes its probably going to poop out not far outside of factory power levels. Subaru is a good show of this. STI, known to be modified, and raced has a solid 6speed that supports far more power than designed. The wrx, those poor bastards got the short end and you meet the limit of that transmission far within bolt on power ranges.

@GearBoxVideo 8 лет назад

User Name Not for the T5. The T5 had over 260 variations because of specific design requirements. The Jeep T5 ratio set for example is designed for the torque output and curve of that specific 6 cylinder engine. Putting that behind a V8 application worked but the transmission was short lived. Mustang 3.35 first gear ratio T5 transmissions constantly broke 3rd gear from people power shifting them with little added horsepower. The power exceeded the design requirement. The reason Ford Motorsport offers a T5 Z spec that they rate at 330 Ft. Lbs is because the standard units break. The motorsport unit offered better input bearing stability and closer ratio spreads. Think of a Torque Rating more as a life factor. You can indeed exceed the transmission's rating or intended design use but in doing that shorten the overall life span of the transmission.

@jeepmanxj 8 лет назад

I can promise you, working DIRECTLY in the business dealing with transmission components I am 100% correct. There is no I've heard, or read. The vast majority of transmissions are made with plenty of headroom. In general, on the vast majority of transmissions they are going to hold far more power than the power plant they are put behind, they have to.

@GearBoxVideo 8 лет назад

Funny thing, so do I! I think you are missing the point. The example of the Jeep T5 unit being used in a V8 application,. There is no headroom for that type of switch. Please keep in mind we are talking about the T5. The Muncie 4 speed which has been tweaked over the years to gain more load capacity in the same form factor could handle way more load than some vehicles use it was installed in. Curious, maybe we know one another since you state you work directly in the business? My name is Paul Cangialosi, I own 5 speeds.com and have been designing and building gearboxes for 34 years. Most people that sell and design Manual transmission parts do know me. Please don't loose sight of the original question which is often asked by others. "How much power can the transmission handle?" If the transmission was designed for a certain application and within that certain application it starts failing because the clutch was dropped at 6500rpm or the guy added drag radials to the mix, the power level wasn't changed was it? Intended use was. Get it?

Paul,, T5 has not been around as long as the Super T10,, mid 70s, itself a upgrade on a Muncie 64-74 which was an upgrade on the original T10 from around 1960. And here in Oz T5s do not have great rep as they explode behind Falcon 6s let alone V8s. And the turbo6 Falcon they were a handgrenade.

@GearBoxVideo 5 лет назад

@cobra454tim 8 лет назад

So is the T-56 designed off the T-5?

@GearBoxVideo 8 лет назад

+cobra454tim Actually the center to center distances of the gears grew. The T5 morphed into the T45 which took the transmission to a coverless endloaded design with a larger center. Then the centers were increased larger and it became the T55. The T55 was never produced but The Legend Gear LGT700 is basically a recased T55. The T56 shared the same centers as the T55 but added a 6th gear. Since then I've lost count out the new variations of transmission models Tremec has come up with based on the T56 platform.

@GearBoxVideo 8 лет назад

+Justin Bechtel Your best bet is to use a Tremec TKO. Not a T5. The TKO has some variable shifter locations and gear ratios that make it work better than a T5 pulled from a Mustang. The TKO was originally designed for the truck market so it is a better match.

+blackericdenice True GM issued the World Class in 1988 and Ford in 1985. Even at that there was a mix of Non World Class and World Class units in GM S10's in the 1990's

GearBoxVideo I'm glad I watch this video because I drove an 89 5.0 5 speed with 2.73 gears for 2 weeks. I know it had 2.73 because @ 60 mph the engine turn 1500 rpm and weak as hell.

Oh God... the TVR... what a batshit and horrible car that was. Well, must be a good transmission if they thought it could handle what the TVR was putting out.
