The part number is C5TE-6380-B. It has 184 teeth, and measures 15.5" diameter accross the ring gear O/D. The prressure plate is a long stlye, and runs a 12" plate with 1 3/8 input shaft diameter hole.

What does it fit?

Thanks

Sounds like an FT unit given the part # & the fact that it's 12" dia clutch.
So it may fit an FE (FT & FE are same family) however, best to use an 11" clutch as 12" will not fit in passenger car bellhousing & 1 3/8" input is only applicable to F trucks & bullnose toploader ($$$$$$).

Hiya FE,
Mate, I've heard of the "bullnose toploader" but to my knowledge haven't ever seen one.
Could you explain what th edifferences are?
(Reason is there's a fella I work with who reckoned he had one fittewd ex-factory on a 289 'Stang. It was much shorter than a normal 'loader and had a 3inch input shaft (3 inch?????????? C'mon!) and also had an internal shift like a singlerail. (1 3/8in is what I've heard so far)
Sounded like bullsh!t to me. He also claimed that he took it into some Ford performance joint in Sydney who tried to instantly buy it off him. Blah blah blah.
(I may be old and stupid but definitely not naive or ignorant)
Thanks, Steve
