NEW GEARBOX:

"Ford and FPV have worked together, using the expertise of the Prodrive engineering operation in Campbellfield, to create a tailor-made version of the robust Tremec T56 six-speed manual transmission for use in all Ford Performance Vehicles. The engineers have developed a host of exclusive components to improve the performance of the vehicles and quality of the gear shift process. These include unique gear ratios between six-cylinder and V8 models, the addition of double synchromesh on all forward gears and single synchromesh on reverse, linear bearings in the shift rail, direct linkage shifters and an electronic reverse gear lockout.These modifications have been made to specifically suit the demands of Australian high-performance customers as well as the unique driving characteristics of the F6 Typhoon but also the range of vehicles powered by the high-tech Boss 290 - the only V8 to be designed and built in Australia"

"The close-ratio six-speed manual gearbox we have developed results in better acceleration, more responsive in-gear performance during enthusiastic driving as well as improved fuel economy for long-distance travelling."

"All FPV vehicles will feature, as part of the transmission upgrade, an exclusive racing-inspired Shift Alert to optimise acceleration and performance. The driver will hear an audible warning as the engine speed is approaching maximum revs, prompting the driver to change gears before the electronic rev limiter"
