yeh m8, its cactus, common as muck, my old eb 5 litre had no 1st or 3rd gear, so only 2nd and top, reverse was a bit dicky at times, but the only way out of it was a recoed trans that the new owner ended up putting in

Hiya Mick. As it's a Ford it will keep going for some time yet, although reverse will be a problem in some situations.
I do think a recon box is not far away. Good luck with it.

being a windsor, would a c4 with the correct bellhousing fit or does the auto talk to the engine computer?

Sounds like its toast mick h

fwiw
the starter is in the wrong position on a C4, needs the 5.0ltr bell housing
