Bill, is there a picture of the fire wall pad for a 56 C 600, I have 2 of them but they are a little on the beat up side and am going to take one of them and have it duplicated, but the section above the throttle I can't tell if its notched or broken off, as none of these seem to be in stock any longer.
Thank you
Aaron

 

Bill could you pleas run my VIN#
F828VEH0303

Thanks SKD91

 

F82 = F800 (gas).

8 = This is probably a B = 370 4V

V = Kentucky Truck Assembly Plant.

EH0303 = 1979.

 

Thank You!

 

Bill, I just brought home a 1957 C600, VIN C60U7U36127, 111-inch WB; Color= A (Black) Date= 19F (June 19, 1957); Trans = G (NP M/D 5 Speed w/Overdrive, and Axle = 24, the Timken Model F104 single-speed with 7.20 ratio.

It is in such good survivor shape that the only part I need help locating is the boot for the parking brake, which my 57-63 parts catalog says is B9C-7242-A. Are there any out there? I have the retainer, just need the rubber boot. Thanks in advance for any help. BLUESDEFENDER

 

I have a 1966 ford f60 with a 330 md motor and I just got a 429 with a C6 transmission I want to put the 429 in my f60, but I want to keep the pto for a plow and dump truck to work, is the 5 speed transmission bell housing replaceable with one that will fit the 429/460 motor, or is it possible to use the C6 automatictransmission and pto ? The 330 is really gutless. Any and all help is appreciated
Thank you for any help

Kevin

 

Serving suggestion: Keep the 330, and look for a 361 or 391, which will pretty much bolt right in.

As for the 429/C6--That would be out of what, a Thunderbird? What year?

11:1 compression and a 2.47 first gear are not desirable in a medium duty truck.

To adapt this into your truck would require fabrication and adaptation of just about everything associated with the engine and trans.

You could probably use a ZF5 speed from a later moded F250/350 equipped with a 460.

The C6 has no provision for a PTO.

What transmission is in your truck now?

Post the VIN and info from the data plate.

You are looking at a lot of mix and match on top of fabrication.

 

The VIN Is F60CK809669,
One of the reasons I want a big block that is newer is parts availability, i got a 76. Ford f35 with a C6 transmission and it was my brothers truck, and the 429 is a 1970 ford grand Tarino.
I want the weight of the old 66 f60 because I want to travel with a big rv and my camaro in tow, I'd like to keep the pto but if I cant, then I can't, you would think they would have a 12v electric motor that I could drive the pump with , this is all new to me I am looking for a heavy enough truck that won't have problems pulling the weight I want to pull

AND BTW I Have Put A 427 Out Of A Galaxy With The Automatic Transmission In A 68 F250 I Had To Do Some fabrication on motor mount towers and drive line work and a floor shifter but it run good and had plenty of power, i think a 429/ 460 with a C6 automatic transmission would be plenty of power for that f600 ,

 

And what is the tourqe and hp of a 391

 

Is It impossible to run a pto and a automatic transmission , i thought that the ford C6 automatic transmission was about the toughest automatic transmission they made in the 60s, 70s and 80s

Bill: THANKS A MILLION! They're on the way. The fella at Green Sales (800) 543-4959, also said I could fax or email them a list of PNs and they will bounce it off their inventory; what a great resource you are. G
