This isn't a T-18 , by chance? Out of an '87 Ford 1/2 ton pickup

Local seller...waiting on him to get me pics of the stamping, thought I'd ask while I waited

Shape doesn't look quite right to me, based off the pics I've seen...Novak, etc

The T-18 doesn't have that pronounced butterfly shape on the bellhousing side. I don't think the NP435 has it either. And both of those transmissions have a PTO port on the passenger side.

IMO, it looks a lot like the T170 series Tremecs that Ford used. Not sure if they were still being used in '87 or not, but they are very similar to the T-176 /T177/T178 used in Jeeps.
 
This is an early ford T-18 but the pattern is the same on the later ones.

The T170 was a top loader Transmission . Ive been racking me brain trying to ID this Transmission . Even googled cant seam to find out what it is.it could be a T-176 that someone installed in a ford has the butterfly pattern

Several versions of the T170 series were used in Fords. Some with external shift rail and some were a top shift. My money's still on a T170

I didn't know that they made a external shift rail on the t170.
 
Looks like the T-176 in my CJ5 .
Not positive!
Any other pictures?
 
He just sent these...definitely not an 18



Not sure how to even begin to decode



Do you have the actual picture instead of a screenshot of it? Can't make our all the numbers
