Which tranny is physically smaller?

[blueovalguy]

I have a '65 Falcon Ranchero, and need to get a tranny. Which is smaller, T-5, toploader, or C-4? (Falcon's have a little less room in the tranny tunnel area than stangs do)
Thanks!

Top loader is smallest followed by C4, then T5. T5's require a lowered cross member to handle deeper tranny case.

actually they are all very close in size. the reason the T5 needs a different crossmember is because the mount is further back than the C4or top loader mount. the T5 and top loader are about the same size, iwth the C4 actually being a bit smaller due to using planetary gear sets.

Thanks for the info guys!
