interesting site, and good pg on the iron warner autos. but in his
list of possible replacements he doesn't include the ford fmx, which
is supposed to be a straight swap due to its shared ancestry.

That's only a RUMOR Anrew, no one has EVER confirmed that an FMX will interchange with a M-1x or M-4x tranny. Internally they share some parts, and many rebuild kit makers merge the BW trannys with the FMX and earlier Ford models that were based on the BW design. They just include a few extra gaskets, mainly for the valve body. I wish someone would confirm for sure if an FMX will bolt onto a BW bell and the converter will either interchange or the BW converter will work on the FMX! That would make replacements a bit easier, even if a custom driveshaft were needed. Many assume the BW is a Ford transmission because of the kits, they don't realize that the Ford is actually a BW transmission!
