Most of them do. Most had the E4OD trans, which does have a lockup converter. A small number were built with the C6 trans, which does not have a lockup converter. The easy way to tell is on the end of the shifter. If there is a button with an OD OFF light, it's the E4OD.

Ford made C6's through the '96 model year. They were available with the diesel, 460, and 351 in F250 and up, plus the E350 and up.

Most were E4ODs, but there was a small number each year through '96 that were C6.

Look any where at C6 info for rebuilds etc. nothing available after 91. only autos available that may resemble C6 were AODE, still not a C6. Every truck offered with a PSD was also given a OD tranny- be it manual or automatic. They all had overdrive. If you can find some documented proof I may start to believe you, but I'm 99.99999% sure you're wrong about the C6

ok jes called my local ford dealership parts dept. They didn't put a c6 in a 94 powerstroke because they couldn't get service parts for one. If that ain't proof i don't know what is.

I found the following at TCI (Torque Converter manufacurer
CLICK HERE About half way down the page

They made the c6 from 1988-94 for the 7.3L Diesel but not the powerstroke, IDI only.
