Just so happens that "both" close & wide ratio transmissions were available on gt350's with or without a/c. I have yet to find an answer.
Just to add, I remember an article on the then new 1970 Boss 302, in one of the automotive trade magazines back in 1970(?), and it stated as I recall, that the test car had been fitted with the "close-ratio" box, unlike as was intended to be fitted by Ford, as there was a shortage of the appropriate "wide-ratio" units for production at the time. Maybe someone else recalls this?
Perhaps, this is a question for the Boss forum: If the above is correct, how many Boss 302's actually were original equipped with close-ratio boxes, and have since been "rectified" with wide-ratio boxes in restoration? And, would this be reflected in the Marty Report?
Didn't intend to hy-jack this thread but.........someone else started it!
