I have a transmission with a stamped number that Iwould like to iidentify what year or where it might be from. Any help would be appreciated. The marking is: "" H5491"" Thanks for looking . Kerk
If that trans looks like a Ford transmission It could be a 1936 Lincoln Zephyr trans. Lincoln VIN started with "H" and a four digit number would be early 1936. In 1936 37 Lincolns used the Ford transmission.
Canadian Ford used H followed by up to four numbers in 1938. There is also a mention in the 1940 list but 1940 would be a side shift transmission in cars and top shift in commercials. Here is a link. http://www.wnyrg.org/canvins.html
