hi guys and gals :) its been a while so i know let me have it. but i got a ??? for you all. i come across a 75 t-bird with a 351w and i think a fmx tranny??? but not sure it has a detachable bell housing ??? so is this a fmx or c4??? and if it is a fmx will a stall converter from a c4 work in it?? any help and i would be grateful, oh and i promise to be more active also:)
FMX is cast iron, C4 and C6 are aluminum. Converter won't work from one to 'tother.
ok its not a fmx.then did ford make a c4 with a detachable bell housing:confused: :confused:Quote:

c3:confused: :confused: hmm maybe thats them what does the pan look like on a c3????Quote:

Don
I don't have a picture and it's been awhile since I've seen one. They were usually found behind V-6's that didn't have an AOD. I'll see if I can find a link.
Well, All I found out so far is there was a C-5 also for V-8's without OD. I didn't even know that one existed. Still can't find a link that has pictures.
ok found one on the web its a c3 . so which is better ???? c4 or c3
C-4 by all means. Here is a link to more info on the C-4:http://www.mustangandfords.com/techa...ion/index.html
