Default Cluster interchange

Do the clusters (1/4 ,5/6) interchange between the single/double cone and the double/triple cone designs? Assuming same tooth count/ratios. I'm guessing the 1/4 cluster should, but not sure about the 5/6 cluster since the main shafts are design specific.

I've got a c5 trans with a trashed input, 1/4 cluster and worn 5/6 cluster. I can get a good used camaro 1/4 cluster and 5/6 cluster cheap to keep rebuild costs down if they'll work. Thanks

M29 / M12 1-4 countershafts interchange regardless of triple/double or double/single.
MN6 1-4 countershafts interchange. regardless of triple/double or double/single.

If you're talking about the 5-6 clustergear on the mainshaft, MN6, M12, M10 are all the same one regardless of double or single.

Just to be **** for future searches, the input/cluster gears on the M29 are physically shorter than the M12, so while the ratios are the same, they can not be interchanged...

No **** to it. I'm going by a parts listing that says C5 M12 has the same # for 1-4 cluster as F M29. You probably have 93 parts in-hand; I don't.
