I have a 1964 F100, that currently has the straight 6 with the three on the tree. I bought a brand new 390 crate motor from my brother in law very cheap. I would like to know what are my transmission options for this engine and truck combo? I would prefer to have a 5 speed close ratio, or a 4 speed close ratio manual, and as always funds are sort of limited. any suggestions? Thanks

Nothing cheap.

A ten spline close ratio top loader will also set you back some serious change.
