By the years you stated Ford had water cooled the transmisson inteads of air cooling it as was done before> Three lines from the trans 2 for oil to the radiator and a vacuum line to the modulator. The earlier transmissions had a convertor which came apart and frequintly needed the stator clutch replaced, slow top speed poor pickup, noise and overheating of the transmission were the symptoms. As my memory tells me. kotzy

here's the plan.

going to get the 1964 Ford F100-F350 Truck Shop Manual

from Forel Publishing and figure this all out.

Have A Nice Day!

 

Howdy,

By "water cooled" you do mean a heat exchanger in the radiator right?

I am using an E4OD in my F-600 and I'll install a Hayden transmission cooler with a fan on it.

My radiator is the OEM radiator that I had re-cored to a 4-row.

There's no heat exchanger inside.


I seem to remember the Fordo-matic I had in my 57 Fairlane having 2 lines going from the trans to the radiator.
