Ford F100 1973
new to the site if I am in the wrong area for this post,
so I am in a little bit of a pickle, I have a 1973 ford f100 with a FE360 with a C6 transmission. I am completely rebuilding the motor and transmission, got ahead of my self taking the motor out I cant remember how everything hooks up is there, are there some good books out there that shows were all the vacuum lines go the transmission lines and power steering lines go ext.
and the transmission has its own radiator correct, smaller of course ?

Stock, the trans oil cooler is built into the bottom tank of the radiator. There was also an optional HD external cooler but this was an uncommon option on the F100.
Is your truck 2 or 4WD? It makes a difference on the power steering.
For the vacuum lines, try to locate a copy of volume 6 of the '73 Ford shop manual. This is the volume that deals with emissions systems. It has the vacuum diagrams in it.
Also, next time, get a digital camera and take lots (and lots, and lots) of pictures during any teardown. That gives you something to reference when you go to put it back together.
