It depends on what transmission you have.
Generally these trucks came with the t98 transmission.
The T98 Transmission - Novak Conversions
Ford used it until 1964.
I'm no expert, but there is a good chance if the 1957 transmission is stock, it will bolt right up.
Do you have pictures of any of these? Do you have a transmission with your 239.
Also, some parts will interchange between the 239 and 292. I have a 239 that was rebuilt around 1970 and I have a 239 head on one side and 272 on the other. The work was done by a top quality rebuilder back then.
