Question Suggestions

I have a 1971 f-100 with a 302 motor and a c6 trans in it and I was wondering if anyone would know what kind of car/truck I would need to look at to get the passing rod, I got a passing rod out of a 70 something model ford truck and it was not long enough to fit,so are there any suggestions?

Welcome to FTE

The C6 was not available until 1978 w/a 302 engine. 1969/77: The only A/T available w/the 302 was the C4 which has 11 trans pan bolt holes.

not sure what your budget is, but Lokar (and maybe others) make a cable kick-down.
