yeah but bat is a euro spec tranny and are those for 4 or 6 cy.?

 

 

i just posted it to try and save a few people a little money nothing more. some dont have the budget that most people do. so save a couple of hundred on a new trans. its just an option for those of us that have few options on getting new parts for the tour.

problem is I wouldn't trust then as they say its for a 2.0 but the picture is for a V6 ... I do see it says V6 but ... it also says 95 + which isn't true ...

...I ask about the part # etc because,from that I can establish if they are 'genuine' new, as in 'unused Ford stoc' that BAT sell or a 're-man' new.It is important that 'new' is just that and does have all the 'latest' internal components etc.From the part tag(see pic) I can establish year,type of vehicle and internal design level of parts etc ...

No,you can't swap bellhousings ,6cyl >4 cyl.The bellhousing is a cast part of the main trans housing1)they are matched halves,2)The input shafts are not the same V6 to 4 cyl,bearing preloads would need to be readjusted etc,if it could be done..I'm sure I've covered this a million times.Only 'some' internal components can be swapped but I can assure you it is not straight forward.We,HMS Inc,have our own 'interchange' matrix so we know what can and can't be swapped MTX to MTX..V6 to 4 cyl,rod to cable ,Contour>Focus,all to Jag etc etc.This is one of the reasons we are experts on the MTX.No other shop has such data.We compiled it over many years.(and the data is NOT for sale!!! ;) ) You get the data as part of any 'custom' trans we build....on the inside!

....well,I'll tell you straight.First thing I would do with one of these MTX's would be to tear it open and check the guts out!.FWIW long before BAT offered the new Euro boxes Eric & I were talking and he got assy numbers etc to me so that I could validate them and an MTX from the very first batch he had was sent to us at HMS for inspection and report well before he offered them for sale.We were 100% sure of the content,level,specs,gear ratios etc etc before the ad was ever put on the BAT site.Eric wanted to be 100% correct on what he was selling....Call me picky but I'm yet to be convinced on these boxes... :unsure:
