I'm thinking ahead a bit, but has anyone ever used the 5 speed MR02 transmission Mazda made for the Ford 88 to 96 small block in a Tiger? 1st gear is a bit low at 3.75, but that might be OK with the

I may be interested in your transmission. I am curious about the Mazda MR02 because looks like the shifter position is different. I haven't found any dimensional information yet, just wondering if an

While I am no expert on the Mazda, I do have a great GEAR RATIO Transmission application that runs on Excel. AND you don't even have to buy Excel. A ink to a free Excel Reader is included. This calcu

Thanks. I don't think I need to worry a whole lot about how much modification I might have to do. I am going to have to replace the floor pans, sills and most of the trans tunnel anyway. Just have t

Not to correct Mike but the 5 speed in my Tiger was a Dale A. transformed from the AMC Concord or Spirt tail shaft. He bought a new 5 speed and changed 5th gear to keep it in the cam but Im sure the

The ratios in that Mazda transmission are: 3.75, 2.32, 1.43, 1.00, 0.75 . The 2.32 2nd gear in that transmission is 1st gear in a close ratio Toploader. Most seem to find the 2.78 1st gear of the wi

This is the Mazda transmission made for the Ford 302, used in the F150, Bronco and others starting in 1988. Thomas Witt really answered my question; first gear is way too low (3.75) to be of any use

That makes perfect sense in a truck where you need a granny gear first for stump pulling or hauling heavy loads. I've heard that some Tiger owners with 5 speeds have 3.07 or 3.31 rearend gears, sinc

That's why I am looking at installing 2.72 rearend gears with my wide ratio toploader that has the 2.90 first gear from David Kee Toploaders. Compared to the 2.88 rearend, this would be equivalent t

Very true. In a 4000 lb luxo barge with a gas hogging 400-500 HP engine they definitely need all the advantage they can get when certifying their gas mileage, i.e. keeping the rpm range at the fuel e

You can buy the 2.72 gears new, but they are expensive. http://www.superioraxlegear.com/dana-ring-pinion-gear-p-10705.html I found one used set on ebay ($75) and the other on Craigslist ($50). 2.72
