Re: [AMC-list] Fw: transmission wanted & interchange questions

Scott, the SR4 is a rather weak four speed trans. You can use a Ford style early V-8 T-5 and be much better off. Pretty much uses the same components except the trans itself. The T-4 and T-5 were derived from the SR4.

These sites are swapping onto a V-8, but swapping to a 72+ six uses exactly the same parts and procedures.

I spoke with you on the phone today, thank you for taking the time to speak with me.  Anyway what i have is: 1973 amc hornet 2 dr hatch with a 258 six cyl with a 904 automatic transmission.  what i am looking for is the Ford SR4 4speed transmission that was in the 1977 hornet amx with the 258 six cyl.  I need everything to convert this over from the automatic. Cluthc Pedal, Bellhousing, Shifter, Linkage, Flywheel, Pressure Plate...etc.  right now the transmission, bellhousing, and shifter is the most important.  if you know of anyone that is parting out such a vehicle or already has these items please let me know.

Thank You
Scott Dunigan
