Synopsis
Learn to rebuild and modify the Ford Toploader 4-speed transmission, which shifted millions of Ford performance cars. Ford muscle cars of the 1960s helped the Toploader transmission quickly gain a reputation as the best of Detroit's new 4-speeds. Introduced in 1964, this transmission was an immediate upgrade over prior models, and it paired well with Ford engines, such as the 289, 302, 351 (Windsor and Cleveland), 390, 427, 428, and 429 (Cobra Jet and Boss). The Toploader manual transmission was used in cars from Cobras to Galaxies and was mandatory equipment in the Boss cars. The simplicity of the Toploader transmission lends to an easy understanding of its operating procedure within its effective design. Even though the transmission was phased out toward the end of the muscle-car era (1973), the Toploader is still alive and well today, shifting race cars and performance cars with speed and ease. This book features step-by-step procedures in an easy-to-follow format by award-winning motorsports author John Carollo.

    Initially had a wrong item delivered but the manufacturer themselves admitted it was packaged wrong at the factory and they corrected the issue for the seller. And they told me this seller is an outstanding business and owner so I have to say I had a good transaction since the issue is fixed and it was never his fault

    Apologies for the Feedback delay. I am very happy with this purchase The item was as described, and n my opinion a good value for the money spent. Shipping was quick and sellers packaging stood up to the rough handling by shippers here in the Wild West. I would deal with this Ebay seller again. Thank you Tom

    Quality description and great communication. Packaging was a little lacking and carrier folded it into the mailbox but the book arrived undamaged fortunately. Recommend boxes for books but otherwise a great seller!
