Manual tranny........... NP 435

The 300 I6 as well as the 351 V8 will bolt up to the transmission with no issues. However, the 300I6 will require the motor mounts to be relocated.
No, not the same.
It mostly depends upon the motor that is in your vehicle and the motor in the vehicle in which you are removing the transmission from. It should work as long as they are removed from the same motors. The transmission on a 4cyl will not bolt to a 6cyl. www.FordRanger.net
It should bolt right up to a T-5 transmission.

YES.
Yes.
The 1985 with an automatic transmission has a dip stick close to the fire wall. using a funnel, fluid is added through the dip stick tube. In a manual transmission there is a plug on the drivers side of the transmission. The plug is removed and fluid is added through the bolt hole.
the 351M/400M Ford motor has the big block bellhousing bolt pattern, like the 460 and 429 engines. So any overdrive transmission would need to have the Ford Big Block bolt pattern or you will need an adaptor. I do not believe Ford built any overdrive transmission for the Big Blocks. So I don't think there are any direct bolt ons The Ford AOD is a Ford Overdrive transmission that may be used but an adaptor plate and other modifications will have to be made. The GM 700R4 is a good overdrive transmission but would definitely require an adaptor plate.
The 1994 Ford Thunderbird motor mounts are secured with a bolt and nut running through the middle of the motor mount. Loosen the nut and pull the bolt out.
