HEH BT

Quote from wmcurryjr

Hi,

Saw a HEH BT close ratio toploader for sale. Is this correct for early 65 K codes? Wondering

Thanks, Wallace

Wallace, I tried to call you but your phone number as stated as not in service and I tried twice. That said, an HEH-BT is NOT a close ratio and is NOT for a Hipo. The identifier information that is out there on the internet toploader sites is in error. They also have an error on dates used for the HEH-T transmission and this comes directly from the Ford MPC which is in error on that transmission. We had HEH-T transmission with stamped VIN's on the original Hipo site with Kar production dates as late as May 1965. The toploader sites show that transmission from 8-20-1964 to 10-1-1964 which matches the Ford MPC but that information is in error. If you are in doubt, ask the seller how many teeth are on the second gear. 28 is a close ratio and 31 is a wide ratio. You can call me tonight before 8 PM PDT at my wifes house 909-621-9909.
