Hey everyone!
just signed up with the FTE. Driving ford trucks since the 70s and now am building a 1979 F150 step side 2wd. Installed a 392SVO and C-6.
I’ll be looking for ideas and suggestions for this project.
Not to bright with forums or computers in general but I’ll manage.

Sounds like a fun project!
Have you thought of adding overdrive? . . . or maybe going with a 4R100?
Thanks.
transmission is in. Hadn’t thought of an overdrive .
does that mount up at the rear end?
You could do a Gear Vendors overdrive if you want. They seem like the only player in town for this kind of thing. Their unit is 0.78:1 and 1:1 , so the overdrive ratio isn't quite as tall as in a 4R100 (0.71:1) . but they have kits for normal stuff like bolting to the back of a C6.
