No such thing as original. FMX installed in 1969/89 misc Passenger Cars & 1973/77 F350 300 I-6's only .. has 14 trans pan bolt holes.
1977 F150 4WD: 300 I-6 C4 (11 trans pan bolt holes) or 351M/400 C6 (17 trans pan bolt holes).

What engine do you have? A FMX is definetely a transplant if that is what you have. If you do a C6 swap, just look for one that has the adapter already on it, and be done with it. Better yet, find a donor truck and rob the mounts and all and just put it together with factory stuff.
