As far as I know, there isn't a 6 speed that fits the 460. You need a ZF 5 speed from a 460. The ZFs have an integrated bellhousing, so you need one from a 460 specifically. Not a diesel or a small block.

To get a 6-speed you would be looking at an aftermarket trans, Richmond makes one that will work with the appropriate belhousing.

Fill out your location information and we can re-post where you're at and say "there?". ;) -------------------------------^

I didn't have any luck with selling mine on Craig's List and I offered free delivery.
Called a guy selling rebuilt E4od's and he offered $35. :)

Later I gave it away to a friend that needed it, good thing I didn't sell it for cash. xD

--------------------------------

I read something about modifying the holes and making diesel transmissions fit the 460?
Or what was that? Was it between two different Ford diesels?
