Thanks

There is a good chance the DOHC will be mated to an MT75, you really need to have a look to ID it.

The type 9 has a different gate pattern to the MT75. One has reverse below 5th and the other has reverse to the left of 1st. Can't help you
with which one is which though!

I'm using the dohc and it's def. the MT75
The MT75 is a Alu-casting
The T9 has a iron housing. (alu clutch-housing is possible)
Look in my photo-archive for picture of gear-box

Just to throw a spanner in the works, I was talking to a guy who said he pulled a Type 9 out of a DOHC.
However I've just pulled an MT75 out of one and every one else seems to have one too.

MT75 also has the 'Lift' for reverse mechanism - the Type 9 is a 'Push down for reverse'

It's slightly confused by Ford using up parts by mixing and matching until all the type 9s had gone.
Working in a Ford dealers in the late eighties/early nineties, we once sold, in the same week two identical looking Sierra 2.0 GLs, one was a pinto
with a type nine and the other a DOHC on a MT75. It was the same for the 1.6's, some were pinto, some CVH in no particular order.
I've even seen a 4 door RS2000 (mk2) which I would have put my house on not existing!
Cheers

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

I had a friend in the sixties who worked in a ford dealers and they took delivery of a 4 door Escort for a customer and did the delivery check on it
and prepared it for him. Customer comes in and he is delighted with his brand spanking new car, goes out to the forecourt gets in it and comes back
five minutes later asking why he has a three door?
It had two doors on the drivers side and one on the passenger side!!!
