My T-10 4 Speed in my 1962 Corvette jumps out of second gear when I let off the throttle. Does anyoone know what causes this?

A friend has purchased several Muncie's and T-10's from a closed rebuild shop. ID'ing the Muncies has been no problem, but I can't seem to find any reference info on how to decode stampings, splines, etc. for the T-10's. Anyone have cross-reference info for these trannies?

I an looking for a tailshaft housing for the T-10 in my '65 Mustang GT coupe...any ideas where I may find one in decent shape?

Is there a site that has info on iding the Super T-10?
Is the Super T-10 stronger than an M-22?

Super T-10 were never rated as high as M22 gear boxes, but their gear ratios are a hell of alot better than Muncie ratios.

65GT is looking for a Ford T-10 Tail.... we have em! $75 dollars and it's yours....

Looking for a Imput Bearing Retainer for a 66 Mustang T-10 4 speed

To Rich: I have new T-10 retainers for Fords they cost $45.00 each and come with the seal and gasket. Reach us at 561-447-9594

I just completed a rebuild of the t10-1b trans. I used the kit and It couldn't have been easier. I have never rebuilt a trans and didn't have a manual. There were a couple of little trick to get every thing back together, These were high lighted in conversations over the phone. The car had a bad drive line vibration (bad input shaft bearings) and would jump out of 2nd grear (new slider and shift fork). If I was starting from scratch I would have replaced both sliders and shift forks. The gasket set include stopped all the oil leaks I had. First time the trans hasn't dripped. If you want the benefit of my experience send email

How do I tell if my ST10s have nickle gears? I am using ST10s w/264 1st gear ratios behind a LS7 Chevy BB and am concerned about the strength of this trans. Other info: 373 rear in 78 Elcamino. Thanks in advance.
Mike Crosby

To Mike Crosby: You cannot tell from the outside of your ST10 if your gears are 9310 nickel. Nickel alloy gears have drill marks that Identify them as such. A drill mark is a 11/32 OD hole that looks like someone started to drill a hole but stopped. Here goes: The input will have a drill mark where the ID of the front bearing presses on it right below the snap ring groove. The cluster will have a drill mark on the front face above the thrust washer surface. 1st has a drill mark on the back side. 2nd and 3rd have drill marks between the ID bore and the synchro cone surface on the front side.

Does anyone have any experiences with the Richmond version of the Super T-10? Does anyone know haw well they stand up against a Muncie in terms of durability and performance?

What month in 1974 did GM stop using the Muncie 4-speed and switch to the AS9-T-10?

One of the trans mount bolt holes is broken on my spare BW ST10. Can this be TIG welded and retapped? I also need to fabricate some additional shifter mounting points to relocate the shifter as far forward as possible. Trans is in a 78 Elky and I want the shifter location to be as close as possible to the original Saginaw.

Thanks in advance

Mike Crosby

To Mike Crosby: Mounting ears on these transmissions snap all the time and can be welded with no problem. Instead of fabricating something on the tail to move the shifter forward just make an adapter plate out of 1/4 inch steel that bolts to the tail and allows the shifter to bolt where you want it.

What aftermarket shifters would be recommended to
replace either a toploader or T-10 shifter from a
66 mustang (GT fastback)? Where can these be
found?

By Paul Cangialosi (Admin) on Monday, November 16, 1998 - 07:48 pm:

To Larry Ciraulo: Hurst shifters sells an aftermarket shifter for this application. Available from any local speed shop or mail order such as Summit or Jegs.

Aside from gear ratios, are there any differences in T-10s and Super T-10s that were factory installed in GM versus Ford cars? You did an excellent job in documenting the identification of Muncies; will you be doing the same for the T-10?

I have a problem. I recently had a 4-speed put into my project truck rod. I was originaly told it was a M-22 but when I went to pick up my truck they told me that they had made a mistake it was a Borg Warner which is better anyway. So what is the scoop? I have a 375 hp corvett 350 in my truck. Should I go back and ask for some money back or is this a better transmission as he said. I don't know the numbers but is was stamped with a date like # - # - 78. Is this a super T-10? help....

To Andrew: Yes is is a Super T-10. Is it better? Well unless we know what you are doing with the truck and know what gear ratio is in your rear end - yes and no!

Super T-10's have a weaker torque rating then an M22 but have better gearing which would seem to be a plus in a truck. If you have at least a 3.73 or higher numerical rear end gear then an M22 will work. If not a ST-10 is better.

I have a 69 Nova 396-375 that has a 1st. design Super T-10. The problem I have is with new synchros the trans shifts slow, like it is working the brass rings to get the slider to engage. After a couple hundred miles it will grind unless you let the rpms come way down. It also will grind when down shifting. It has a 2750# Hays clutch and pressure plate. I have checked the bellhousing alignment and the airgap when the clutch is disengaged. I don't think the problem is in the clutch. I believe the part# for the tranny is AS3T10-W it is the wide ratio, with 2.64 first. Your comments would be appreciated. Rick Brown

By Paul Cangialosi (Admin) on Sunday, January 3, 1999 - 09:28 pm:

To Rick Brown: You problem sounds like a poor clutch release deal. Even though I am aware that you checked your air gap here is a simple check. Let the car get good and warm and idle for a bit. Then press down on the clutch, count to 10 and put it directly into reverse. It should not grind. Also did this happen after you changed the rings only? Whose rings did you use? Does it grind in all gears? Email me direct for a faster response

I JUST RECENTLY ACQUIRED A 1979 Z-28 AND IT HAS A 4 SPEED. I'M NOT THAT FAMILIAR WITH STICKS AND WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW TO TELL WHAT EXACTLY I HAVE. TWO WERE OFFERED THAT YEAR; A SAGINAW OR BORG WARNER. I'VE ALSO BEEN TOLD THAT IT MIGHT BE A MUNCIE.IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME ID MY TRANS I WOULD BE GREATFUL.

By Michael D on Wednesday, January 20, 1999 - 11:56 am:

I have a 4speed transmission that appears to be a Borg Warner. These characters <DNE 33 A99B> are stamped into the case behind the shift cover plate. Cast into the case are the numbers < 6.9.82 MLA 2431>.I was advised it might be a Doug Nash transmission. How can a Doug Nash 4speed be identified? Can anyone help me with these questions?

I have a 68 Camaro with an M20 (2.52 first gear) I want to install a '75 Super T-10 (2.88 first gear) in the car .I have changed the rear gear from a 3.73 to a 3.31. I have two questions: Is the Super T-10 stronger than the M20, or would I be better of with the Muncie? Is there a linkage mounting plate out there that will mount to the T-10 that will allow me to mount the Hurst Competition Plus from the Muncie and still have the shifter come through the floor at the right spot? I have a console with gauges, so this is critical. I was hoping to not have to cut and weld on the mounting plate, as I want a stock looking install. A lot to ask for, huh?

I have a Richmond Street 5 Speed that has about 2000 miles on it since new. The transmission is a little hard to shift, not bad just not that slick. It has the optional 4.06 low and 2.22 second gears. I am running a 10.4" Centerforce Dual Friction clutch with plenty of air gap, a Long shifter correctly adjusted, and Castrol VMX oil ( 80w90 semi synthethic ). The transmission also has an annoying 'shifter buzz' in 4th gear when coasting. The shifter and linkages are all clear of the tunnel and everything is secure. Before I ditch the centerforce for a lighter clutch disc, does anyone have any suggetions.

wanted;T-10 four speed for 66 ford galaxie 390 big block

I am converting a 1973 350 Corvette from an automatic to a mannual transmission. I would like to use a Doug Nash 5 speed because of the great ratios, but I am concerned about how well it will fit. Can anybody tell me if it will fit with no modifications to the interior, the console in particular? What other modifications might be necessary under the car? I can be contacted at trsulliv@yahoo.com

Slated is a 406 SBC (Hi torque Low rpm) and the 350 will be put in storage. Clutch and associated hydraulics to be replaced. What is the best approach? Thanks.

Here goes nothing:
Trying to find out which 4 speed tranny from a chevy car will bolt up to which 4x4 transfer case in a chevy truck. Any one have info on this?

I need some help finding information how to disassemble and reassemble a Super T10 transmission. A blown up illustration drawing would be very helpful.

Can anyone identify the following casting?: 1304065903 with a date code of 7-16-74 ? Does this sound correct ? And is this truly a '74 unit T-10 or ST-10 ? It is currently in a '79 Trans Am and the owner said it was an M-22.. I ID'd it as a T-10 (9 bolt cover, aluminum) I just want to know if it's an early unit or later model unit and if it's good ! Thanks

NewProcess 208f transfer case QUESTION???
Currently has a 3speed w/overdrive.
Now the question, What if any side loaded 4speed will mate up to this transfercase?
This is in a 1982F-150 4x4, which has a 300-six and is going to be replaced with a 302 or 351/w when know what trans will work.
Thanks in advance for info.
Tom

OK?
Maybe asking wrong question.
Can someone explain the difference between top load and sideload.
My thoughts were that a trans with the shifter that goes into the top of trans is a toploaded and one that has a shifter mounted on the side is a side loaded.
Is this correct?
...Tom

To Tom Fischer: Toploading or sideloading has to do with how the geartrain is loaded into the case. The gears in a toploader ford 4 speed are loaded thru the top. Basically if you have a side access cover it's sideloaded. This terminology has nothing to do with stick position. Also most "sideloader" transmissions can't be assembled thru the sidecover anyway!

To Tom Fischer: Sideload and topload have to do with how the geartrain is loaded into the case or case access by having top or side covers. Your 208F transfer case probably has a T170 transmission with an all aluminum cae and stick comming out of the topcover. The T170 is actually the proper name for Toploader style transmissions made by Tremac and sold to Ford in the late 60's thru 1980's. There are many variations. You can take the Jeep T170 gearset which is non overdrive and put that in that case.

I am looking for someone in the seattle area with a ST10 trans for sale or trade. prefer 2:88 or 3:42 first gear as I am running 3:08 rear gears. I have two perfect Muncies (wide ratios) as trades. Please send e-mail if you know anyone or you have a trans. Thanks Ron
e-mail at ronssimpson@worldnet.att.net

i have a t-10, 10-11-62 on sidecover,8-20-62 on tailshaft, all aluminum, 2.36-1.76-1.41-1.00 ratio. anyone interested? I am looking for a good trans for drag racing to hold about 600hp, but need to sell this one first

I got a T10 trans. with my 68 Charger. Useless to me, I want to know what it is. The tag says 9D3-A1. The front cast number says T10 B-1, W.G. Div, W-1. The back half says T-10H-7A, W.G. Div., W2. 3-28-68.
Can anyone tell me what this is?

To Mark Paul: Count the splines on the T10. This is a first design super T10 it is probably for a ford or an amc car. The spline count on the input and output shafts will help.

I HAVE A TRANNY FRM 81 CAMARO Z-28 350. I THINK IS A BORGWARNER T-10 AND I NEED TO KNOW WHAT GEARS DOES THIS TRANNY HAVE. IF U CAN HELP PLEASE E-MAIL ME THANXS.

Any help would be appreciated. I have a '76 Vette with a T-10 tranny with the code WJ1252 on it along with part of my VIN. Is there any way of determining the ratios that the tranny has from the above number?

I just installed a Richmond 4+1 into a 1973 Corvette. The first 4 gears work well, but shifting it into 5th requires a lot of force. It also requires a lot of force to pull it out of 5th, which means I over shoot neutral and grind Reverse fairly frequently. Shifitng into reverse requires about the same aamount of force as 1-4. I'm using a Hurst Super Competition shifter and Amsoil as the lubircant. Where should I start looking - the shifter and linkage, or is it a tranny problem?

Regards,
Tim

I need to know how to adjust the linkage on my t10 its hard to get into 3rd gear (as if it dosnt have enough travel) then when it gets in and you apply power it pops out. thx for your help.

I need help in identifing this xmission. It has 26 spline input. case # 13-04 065-904, tail # 13-04-068-905 and cover A.23.79 Q7 13-04-097-901. I want to rebuild it , but need year and type. Is it a super t-10? Thanks for any help you can give.

John

Which Hurst adapter plate# do I need to adapt a 1969 Ford OEM Hurst Competition Plus shifter to a 1969 toploader in a 1969 Mustang? Or does anyone know where I could find out?

Thanks!

How do you tell a super T-10 from a regular T-10?
Is there a site i can go to for T-10 info/identification..Thanks, Gene

I have a brand new 1961 T-10 from GM, still in the original wrapper,complete with shifter,bellhousing,throwout bearing,and what looks like a back-up switch for back-up lights. Can anyone tell me what this thing might be worth?

Could you help me decode this S T-10?

MLT7802

I've answered some of these questions directly. Super T-10's are drastically different than T-10's. I will have a T-10 sheet on the website up soon. Thanks for your patience.

I have a 69 ElCamino with a muncie. Anyone know if i can put a T-10 in and use the same shifter?..Thanks
BTW, Where is everyone? This looks like a great site!!

I have two Super T10s for my '75 Corvette. The original transmission (2.43
1st gear) started dropping out of 4th gear when coasting downhill. I bought
a second ST10 (2.64 1st gear) and installed a rebuild kit (bearings, seals,
synchro rings, and shift lugs) in it. I swapped transmissions and at the
same time installed a stage I Centerforce clutch. The new ST10 refuses to
downshift without double clutching or numerous tries. It also grinds when
shifted quickly from 2nd to 3rd. I pulled it back out and put the original
ST10 back in after replacing the same parts in it. It grinds when shifted
quickly from 3rd to 4th. Am I doing something wrong here? Where can a get
a tech manual on rebuilding these transmissions? Could I have a clutch
problem? Could I be using crummy rebuild parts? I really need to find an
illustrated how-to book on these transmissions. BTW, this car has a 3.08
rear end in it right now for freeway cruising and economy, so I'd like to
get the 2.64 1st geasr back in it and working properly.

I'm trying to ID a T-10. The casting # is 3813490. Other numbers are T10-7D on both the main case and the tailshaft housing. Also WA2832-L165289 on the main case. I'm told it came out of a 62 Corvette. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Les..
I have a T-10 that I'm pretty sure is a 1961 vette/car.
I'll look at the numbers on it as soon as i get a chance and mail you the info...Gene
Sure will be nice when the T-10 ID site is completed...
I really love the info here..

I am looking for some parts for a 79 model super t10. I need the counter gear (28teeth on front gear), the reverse gear and the read reverse idler gear. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jonathan,

You might try these guys..there close to me if you want me to call for you. I won't have time until saturday though...Gene
http://www.abetrans.com/

Jonathan: Normally we stock these parts but are out right now call SK-Speed at 516-957-9427 and ask for Brian. He has these in stock.

I have a T10 1B in a 31 Ford behind a 350 Chevy. Just returned from a run to Laughlin, Nv with a very noisy gear box. Pulled the tranny and found the input shaft bearing split in two. No place to go so it didn't grenade. I've had a problem (as have others) with it popping out of 2nd on deceleration. I have it torn down so I would like to fix this problem also. The tangs on the gear look good as does the syncro rings, and the keys look non worn. What is usually the problem???
