The AOD was only behind the 302 in the F150's. If it doesn't have OD than it's a C6. Only the C6 and the E4OD were offered in the F250's/350's other than manuals.

As for the no spark, give it a full tune-up, pull the codes, and pop the distributor cap off and see if it turns while someone cranks it.

No spark could be a pickup coil under the rotor

thanks for the help, gonna replace cap and rotor tomorrow, and i was pretty sure it was a c6 trans, but im so used to powerstrokes im really out of date on older gas jobs, i will be putting me dt360 in as soon as i get it built and the c6 will be a great trans to put behind the mechinical motor, again thanks for all the help
