Hey Guys I've been looking for a buildable 4spd top loader trans for another project. I found one that was advertised as a 4spd Overdrive. Now, is that really a 3spd with an
additional overdrive gear? Heres a picture of the ID tag from the trans. If anyone can tell me what this really is it will be greatly appreciated Thanks.

You either need to attach a MUCH larger image of that tag (large enough to actually read) or just tell us what the tag says.

Thx for the link 67mann that was good reference material. Mine turns out to be an imposter. If it sounds to good to be true it probably is. The 4 bellhousing bolt holes versus the 8 on a typical top loader was a dead give away. Thanks again

What is your next project
I have a RUG-J2
I bought it and have no use for it
I cant seem to pass up any Ford parts
It is supposed to be ready to run
I know that it looks good on the inside
both the gears and the synchro rings dont show any wear

I also have an Aluminum flywheel and scattershield for an FE engine

If you are interested PM me
