afaik it had the same pattern as the jeep t86, though different input
shaft; afaik this is what kicked off the engine-swap adapter business
in the early '60s - repowering underpowered jeep wagons with 289s,
easy to do with ford bellhousing and 'frankentranny'.  and then
trans-dapt was born...

it suuure looks an awful lot -like- a t96...

not likely, though -jeep- t14s have a t86 nose...

no warner tranny short of a t18 or t19 has ever had the wide ford
rectangle pattern.

ford used several bolt pattern variations with their little
whatever-it-was.  it was a rectangle at first, like the early rambler
t96, but at the end they'd moved one lower bolt way down.  the upper 2
bolts appear to be the same as amc all along.
