NZford Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I know this is a little old but I run a standard xflow 4 speed behind my pinto and it works just fine....and its in a speedway saloon so gets a good thrashing too I had to machine up a little spacer to get thrust bearing working right. (proably could of been solved with diffrent bearing though) Not sure what kinda clutch I've got as it came with the car......I've got the motor out at the moment and could take some photos if anyones intrested?
