Not Ranked
I've been on the Ford websites a lot over the years and those guys Hamer the crap out of those transmissions, faceplated and all and i never heard of breaking third gear. Ive seen a lot of carnage in my years of drag racing, could this isolated incident just be a bad third gear from a metallurgy standpoint. I mean this stuff happens. I don't doubt that the .140 is an issue but does it directly result in a breakage problem the we all know about? Im not seeing that.
