Finally got my transmission pulled from my '57 Golden Hawk; it is the Ford unit. The other unit has the oil-cooler lines and was pulled from a '57 Golden Hawk (purchased it last month). The ID tag is illegible, but sure appears to have some "copper" color that would indicate it is the correct unit.
Any information on this Ford unit (1P-7006-A)? How would I determine if it (or the Stude unit, for that matter) are first-gear shift? I plan to rebuild the tranny myself, will most of these parts interchange (and are the parts each marked with ID numbers to confirm which are the same?) I notice the pans are different, but castings on the back have the same ID number... I'm guessing many of the innards would be identical too?
Any parts in particular that should NOT be interchanged because they are matched? Just thinking that if some of the Stude parts look more worn than the others, I'd swap the corresponding part in from the Ford tranny.
