Someone in MN posted on Craigslist a F4ZR-7003-AC(1352-238).
Can I use this to replace my existing T5?

Not a direct swap. Input shaft is a different length and pilot bushing is a different diameter. There are work arounds for those issues. Also, gear ratios are different.

Thanks. I was hoping for an easy one.
Is it geared lower or higher? I'm pondering (pondering) a 351 Windsor next year. Would like some better gearing for a different engine.
Don't worry to much hardcore turbo fans. It's pondering and right now the chance of it happening are around 20%.
