Somewhere 120-130

I've only seen made in Australia BW35s. They outlast B20's & B30's. Same box also survives behind 250 cubic inch 6 cylinder Austalian Fords & 265 cubic inch 6 cylinder Australian Chryslers. Neither engine is short on torque, especially the Chrysler, the factory triple Weber version was faster than the local 4V 451C powered Fords. (Low 14 second quarters from a pushrod 6 from the factory) In the last model Falcon to use the box, arround 1987, Ford had Borg Warner reduce the input shaft size downwards & renamed them BW40. These die after 120,000 km & the local auto trans guys would use BW35 pieces during the rebuild to restore them back to BW35 strength.

All I can say is the English version must be very very shitty.
