Research notes

Caveats and conflicts (5)
  • Tremec took over the T-5 in the late 1990s, so later cars may be labelled Tremec T-5.
  • Tremec took over the T-5 in the late 1990s. World Class vs Standard T-5 variants. The article does not list 1983-93 V6 cars.
  • Tremec T-5 in later years; Ford service manual calls it T5OD.
  • Correction to existing column (which showed FS5W71C for the whole row). Tremec built the T-5 after Borg-Warner sold the business.
  • Tremec built the T-5 after Borg-Warner sold the business.
