Ive seen aluminum in cars on the 1000s serial wise and Ive seen all cast iron as low as in the 1200s. Ive never seen any factory minutes or paperwork showing they mixed and matched alloy with cast iron in the production cars but Ive seen ads for the transmissions that way . the tailshafts were very fragile and they broke easily6S1078 has an all aluminum T10 maybe this was at the switch over point.

Curiosity got the better of me so I had to have a look. 6S1575 is mid March Ford production date, T-10 main housing date is C 162 or March 1, 66 and tail housing is K 15 65 or November 15, 65. Both cast iron.
Question for Brant, s2ms, and jk66gt350, since all of yours were assembled on March 1, are the casting dates on the case and tailshaft the same too?
