C6 question

I am hoping this is a very stupid question with an easy answer. I have bought a 86 F150 and it has a C6 in it, I did count the pan bolts to make sure it wasn't a C4 but my question is this.....is there any chance that this C6 has overdrive or is that a different transmission? The truck isn't running or I would have been able to answer this myself haha.

Good deal, It has a cable instead of the rod for the kickdown so before I went to purchasing parts to make it work I wanted to make sure first.

1986 F150 302 could have a C6 (17 trans pan bolt holes) or AOD (14 trans pan bolt holes). AOD has an O in the shift quadrant.

I wonder if anyone here has any experience from swapping efi to a carb and having to use lokar or something else in order to make the cable on the transmission to work.

It's as likely to have overdrive as the engine is a 9 cylinder radial.
