I'm thinking about changing the 3 speed manual gearbox om my 65 289 convertible for a automatic one. The automatic transmission I'm looking at is from an 88 351 Mustang GT, but I'm assured it will work (and fit) with any 289, 302 or 351w
The model number of the aut transmission is PF D7 BP 7976 type 30 There's also on it AA OF 142 772. Will this indeed work with my 298 and does it fit well in the body of the 66 model mustang?
I know you have to add an oilcooler and may have problems with the speedometer connection. I also have access to a rack, so that makes it a bit easier.
What other hurdles can I expect while doing this? How much work are we talking about? Will the floor shifter go through the same hole as the manual stick?
Thanks and greetings from Holland!
