tranny swap question

Is there a 5spd or OD manual that will bolt up to a 77 400 that currently has a c-6?

Yes. An overdrive from a newer pickup with a 460 will fit your 400. Do a search, this has been discussed in detail in the past.

tranny swap question

I am looking to do a tranny swap (4 speed to automatic in my 73 F100). I have done a number of searches and have not found any "how to" instructions. Can you give me some suggested search criteria? Thanks.

e065206. I have a 73 F100. I went from a 4 speed to a c 6 and then back to a 4 speed again. What do you need to know?

Okiebronco, How can you tell a big block tranny from a small block tranny?
