c6 small block

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 11-Jan-02 AT 11:09 PM (EST)]gingerbreadmaniac

Just to settle a bet with a friend

Did ford ever produce a c6 trannie that botled up to a small block? I say no but my bud says in the 60,s and 70,s. Anyone out there that was alive in this time and could tell me HES WRONG.

c6 small block

First I need to know what is considered a small block by his interpretation.

To me a small block goes right up to a 400 as per an original Ford book.

I had a C6 from the factory that was behind my 300 I6 and it is the same tranny that I now have behind my 351W. The C6 was used in the early '80s behind small blocks and big blocks until the OD trannies started showing up. I'm not sure what Ford had in the 70's, but in the early 60's they had the cruise-o-matics and it was very rare to find a pickup truck in the 60's with an automatic. I remeber my neighbor getting an auto in his new Ford in the early 70's.

My uncle has a C6 behind a 300 I6 and my dad and I both have C6's behind 351's so I guess the answer is yes because they are considered small blocks.

They were bolted to small blocks all the way up to 1989 I think. SOmeone correct me if I'm wrong. I have an '85 F-150 with the I-6 300ci and the C-6 is bolted behind it.
