Just got a 70 F100. Just wondering how the FMX Trans holds up. Good or Bad?

 

They are pretty good,drag racers like them.Yours has been around 38 years that should tell you something.Try and find a 38 Y/O toyota,Honda or Nissan still running and not rotted away.

 

I must say, after working on Fords for 35 years, that the only trans that I have rebuilt less of was the jatco. The FMX was a pretty bullet proof tranny.

 

I had one in a 1971 Torino. The only thing ever done to it was change the fluid and change the filter. 37 years later it was still working when I traded it a month ago. Bulletproof, IMHO.

 

Hello! I am putting an FMX AT into my 1966 Galaxie, but I am having trouble finding out what the flywheel looks like (if that's the right term). Anyone who can point me in the right direction so I can get my hands on a correct flywheel will have my sincere thanks.
