Yeah, Sure,
If it's going in a 65 or later Slick & C-6 is for an FE engine, not something else.
Also if you get it from an F Series you won't have to Flip shifter lever & you can use a TVR / Throttle Valve Rod [aka kickdown rod] from F series thru 76. it will all fit and work for you.
If you get an FE style C-6 from a "P"-car you'll have to massage a few things to make it work as a "plug & play" installation. It all will fit but it won't work for ya without flipping a lever, getting right TVR, some car models may give you a time w/rear trans mount too.

Hey Pete, Can you take a moment and enlighten me on the lever flip? I had not known about this.
What and where do we flip? I have a car tranny in my truck and need to either flip or replace the arm one day.
thanks bro
