The guy that I got my cosworth from had 2 Jags. He showed me that his 1974-ish jag had a very simular F.I. system compaired to the Cosworth. I believe he said...
Tim, I didn't say the T-5 shifter would work. I was pointing out that having an internal linkage should make little difference to whether or not someone would...
Nick, the T 50 is such an old design and limited to only a few models that I doubt that anyone has made a short shifter for it. Reed ... From: nicsctt02...
The CV injection system is a speed density type with analog electronic control. Bendix invented it in the fifties and held all the patents, but since they...
Bosch perfected the mechanical components to make it all work. Bendix had some vacuum tube EFI units in the 1950s. Gary Derian ... control. ... couldn't ... ...
Unfortunately, there was never an aftermarket shifter made for the T- 50. The internal linkage was not the reason since obviosly Hurst makes one for the T-5....
... Actually, the T-50 was also available in Olds X and A-bodies with the V-6 and 260 CID gas and diesel V-8s, but most installations were in H-bodies. T-50...
