Re: Double Clutching?
The only five speed for those years was the Borg Warner T-5. The
Torque Flight 904 is an automatic.

Re: Double Clutching?
In the good (bad?) old days I drove an old '29 Chevy ton and half farm
truck with heilical cut gears but no synchos on top of lousy brakes. If
you wanted to stop, you hit the downshift with good double clutching. No
downshift, no stop. But at least the chevy tranny had helical cut gears,
the equivilent Ford had straight cuts, even worse to shift.
