Refined over time with slight improvement made to the synchros, phasing out single part synchromeshes on 1st & 2nd gear in favour of three part syncro's.
The designation breaks down as, "M" for manual, "T" for transmission, and "75" for the distance in millimetres between the main and layshaft centers.
This transmission, like the Type 9, is already used in uprated classic cars and hot rods, especially if a Ford Pinto engine, a multi valve 4-cylinder or Rover V8 engine is used.
It should not be confused with the MTX-75 which is a completely different gearbox for front wheel drive models such as the Mondeo, Ford Escort (Europe) also latterly adapted for use in Jaguars & Transit connect vans.
