Ford 5R55
Posted: Tue Apr 04, 2017 2:54 am
G'day guys and girls. This is my first post here.
I'm putting a Ford DOHC Mod motor into an Australian early 1964 Falcon. Will be either a bored and stroked motor.
The 5r55 has really good ratio spreads and think this would be a great gearbox for the application.
5R55S Gear Ratios
First Gear: 3.250
Second Gear: 2.440
Third Gear: 1.550
Fourth Gear: 1.000
Fifth Gear: 0.750
It can also be built to withstand 1025hp according to TCI

Has anyone on here did the MSGPio MegaShift controller with the 5R55? Is there any technical reason why it can or cant be done?
Thanks
Phil
