FE/C6: Some 1966/67 390 and all 1968/71 390 Passenger Cars / 1966/67 Mercury Parklane 410 / 1966/70 428 Passenger Cars / 1968/76 F100/350 360/390.
And btw: Both the C6 & C4 were also referred to as Cruise-O-Matics thru 1979.

No 352 engine installed in a: 1958/67 Passenger Car or 1965/67 F100/350 came with a C6.

with his response.What exact years does "early FE Cruise-O-Matic" refer to? I know, you probably do, but...who else knows?
Bottom line: No 352 came w/a C6 and no F100/350 or Passenger Car came w/a 352 after 1967.
Plus, I typed all the applications for FE/C6. How many people would know all these applications?

I presume he typed 352 because it was offered in 65 as he noted. I surely wasn't confused by his post.
Maybe you could cut some of us a little slack. Bill's post could have been written differently but it was not incorrect.

sorry your confused Bill.... i can't do anything about that. I said NOTHING about a car.
The OP said he was looking for a straight swap... Is a car C6 and Truck C6 the same? i'm sure they have a different tail shaft... the shift linkage is different.

Hey guys I didn't mean to cause a conflict. but ND is right I was confused because i'm not familiar with all the differences on a C6, I thought they where all the same, that's why I posted I wanted to do a straight swap Thinking cars and trucks use the same transmission.So now what is a (Cruise-O-Matic) like I said I'm not as smart as you guys and I understand all of you are just trying to help, So don't forget we are all friends here Thank once again because I can count on all of you.

Most of the pickups 73-76 came with C6s if they were auto. You do want a truck C6 for your truck because of the shift lever position. When in park it will run along the pan joint. A or some cars hang down at a 45º angle.

Personally.........I always appreciate Number Dummy's input. It is very specific and takes the guesswork out of things.
Now for my confusion: my 69 came with a short tail C6, with a yoke. When I added a DN 2 speed, I needed to get a long tail without yoke from a newer truck. How does this come into play wiht the OP's search for a new trans?
Always a little bit confused anyway, Jeff
