my thinking is a little fuzzy, but IRRC, the AMC T5 is eactly the same trans for the 4 cyl and six applications! Same in all dimensions and gear ratios! It is only the bell to engine bolt pattern that differs.
  Keep in mind this trans was spec'd to AMC by AMC before the other manufacturers realized it's potential.
Highlights of the AMC trans,
unique shifter placement
uses Chryco 904 output
uses Chryco speedo adapter and gears
uses S-10 T5 shifter pattern
uses Ford trans to bell pattern
uses GM trans input bearing retainer diameter
4-1 first gear ratio
.8 overdrive, IIRC?
rated at 245 ftlbs torque.
input shaft is 1 X 1 1/16" 10 spline
.509  pilot tip or is it .590"? GM anywany. Ford is .460"

Interesting thread.
http://www.amcforums.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1153222135
 Surprised there is a thread about it, figured most would run from it! Here
is a little, ok, not so little story I would like to add. I worked at
Dirty's sports bar from 83-89. It was a mom and pop place, but we did great
business off the Richmond strip here in Houston. The owner, Terry Ward,
liked to customize stuff also. At that time I was in my "ooh, it has to be
concours or you have ruined it stage" and now 30 years later am in my
"George Barris meets Darryl Starbird in Jesse James Monster Garage and they
get drunk on Jagermeister and all have Sawzalls" so more into custominzing
AMC's now, especially for personal tastes. I may add two of the most watched
car shows on TV are Monster Garage and Pimp My Ride. Guess what? Both custom
shows.

The fellow who owned Dirty's had a Volkswagen customized. Called it the
Dirty Bird, of which a photo is on my site under "photo galleries" and "my
amcs".
 http://www.planethoustonamx.com/Photo_Gallery_AMC/images/amcpower_jpg.jpg

All the employees were told that this could fly, even though it just looked
WRONG. He put it up on the roof, hoisted it, and the traffic jams it created
at Chimney Rock and Richmond, and the wrecks, are legendary. In the photo
above, my cook sits in the Volksy. Late one night after the place closed,
Victor and me looked 'closer' at the car. The propeller would actully spin,
but you had a foot pedal system to make it spin. The helicopter/jet noise
was a amplifier to a Hoover vacuum cleaner engine in back. Loud as hell and
people honestly thought this thing would vertically leap any second! Hell,
we all did!

The City of Houston has a ordinance on signs. Once on the roof, they could
not figure out if this was a sign or a work of art, what the hell it was,
but wanted to somehow regulate it. So they decided it was a SIGN. He decided
to fight it in court. Smart move. Why? Because of the sheer exposure. Every
night it was on all the local TV stations. People wanted to come out and see
this oddity. You can NOT buy that type of exposure, and he knew it! Our
calender year sales jumped from $350K to $1.1mil that year. We had to hire
more cooks, more wait staff, more bartenders, and many of was were working
doubles, triples, rolling in cash. And the people kept coming.

Speaking of that, the old Billy Blue's music club two blocks down on
Richmond sports a nationally known Volkswagen as part of a saxophone. Never
have heard a discouraging word on either the Dirty Bird or the Volks Sax
from "ANY" of the area huge, Volkswagen chapter either, and for over a year,
they had their local meetings at Dirty's, honored that the Dirty Bird was
getting so much recognition for Volkswagens. Here is the Billy Blues sax:
http://www.agilitynut.com/06/3/sax1.jpg

http://www.agilitynut.com/06/3/sax2.jpg

http://www.agilitynut.com/06/3/sax3.jpg

The point was exposure. And a crapload of it. It worked. So here is some
numbers to toss around I guess.

In the 48 hours my 68 AMX/SSR auction has been up, my ebay hidden counter 
has
tallied a STAGGERING 96000 hits. At that rate it will be almost 672,000 hits
by time auction ends.

A hidden counter on my website at planethoustonamx.com has registered a
whopping 7000+ hits in the last 48 hours.

I have gotten 37 phone calls so far, and the best part is from AMCers I have
not talked to in years, one fellow since 93. On that...there is no price tag
you can put on old friendships. It is something I emphasize on a file
somewhere on my site....it is the PEOPLE...not the CARS, that make AMC
special.

3 of the phone calls were simple 'thanks' letting me know that they liked my
site and were able to find their parts from vendors on my list.

2 found cars for sale, one in the 'amc classifieds' and the other off a
older SUAd from 5 months ago.

There are 107 'watchers' of this AMX I have on ebay. All it takes is one to
bid. Hopefully this time they will have money!

Point is this. From years ago, I remember the Dirty Bird, and how much
exposure it got. Whether you agreed or not on whether it was a sign or work
of art, like anything here www.artcars.com
or now whether one agrees it is good or bad (my auction) is of no
concern. Don't whine like old lady in retirement home who wants to
watch Oprah and play bridge, but only on HER terms and certain time.
I am already happy with the results, and that is two AMCs found new
homes and 3 AMCers found parts. Yes, it is a $50 gamble. It's all a gamble,
every time I drive my AMCs in Houston, or drop several $K for a team to
cover a spread! Now if we can just get Las Vegas to have a pro team....

At least on the older (80's?) boxes, the female fitting in
ther steering box AND the pump unscrew. I swapped metric for
non-metric on the pump, but I did not actually swap the one of
the box.

The big square TFI coil is a very high output coil, and it's
matched to the Duraspark box. IU have no idea how it compares
to the coil your'e talking about, which would be much easier
to install.


I'm having a hell of a time with something I thought would be a
no-brainer -- cap and rotor! The Ford TFI type, for the AMC six.

Caps are expensive! Bought one plus a rotor. Installed (this was
nearly 2 months ago now, I've been really busy), did mild tuneup,
drove off...  horrible sputtering and breakup on the highway,
or anything over 2000 - 2500 rpm.

To make a long story short, the rotor tip did not meet the cap
contact! Nearly 1/4" away. The old part (still in there now)
the gap was 1/16" or so. Spark bridged the gap OK (good spark!)
but not enough spark to the plug at high speed. Idled just
fine though.

I carefully measured from the rotor axis center to the tip --
it's far too short. Both cap and reotor same brand, BLUE STREAK.
Brought 'em back to the store, we checked all of stock, all the
same, even the grey one (other brand, name forgotten). All the
same size!

Anyone else have this problem?

all vy gd info!  going into my permanent file.

Would anyone, by any chance, have a real good photo of the Motorola VR12AM18 Voltage Regulator label?  I want to reproduce it for my Typhoon project, and need a really good shot of it.  I can ALMOST make out all the printing, but not quite.

Thanks,

That's really awful, what a nightmare, I'm so sorry for you. I'm
glad it's all healable, at least that's some consolation. And
good insurance, you're lucky! I guess you can catch up on

Ahh, the good ole days, when cars were made of cast iron and
oak trees! Hornet interiors are made out of temporoplastic(*),
and I don't recall any place for those ... what do you call that
design of grommet-style fastening? ... bumpers. I'll look again.




(*) Changes shape over time; once-straight dash lines look
like telegraph wires strung from pole to pole, blowing in a
very slow breeze. 

I could take the ENGINE out of my Rambler, and sit it on it's
STEEL dashboard dammit. Do that to the hornet, it would end up
on the floor. Slight exaggeration for illustration purposes only.
