Bob, are you aware that 1965/66 F100 352's don't use C4 transmissions?

Only the 6 bangers had C4's.

What your F100 has is the MX Cruiseomatic.

The trans pan on the C4's look similar to the COM pan.

C4's have 11 pan bolts, MX COM's have 14.

btw: All Ford engines were painted black thru 1967.

Ford Corporate Blue was not used till 1968.

1965/67 F Series 352's are painted BLACK with GOLD valve covers, Low gloss black paint was used for the aircleaner, oil caps, dipstick and tube. Exhaust manifolds were Sally Rand.

 

You are correct Bill..that is the tranny thats in the truck and connected to this 390, the old thinker is on coffee instead of pilsner now LOL... thanks for clearing that up.

 

Kroil direct..

well the pry bar on the flywheel slowly got her to roll. I'll give it a rest and take the next nut og the trq cnvrtr every few hours today if she continues to roll over.. things are looking up "I hope"

 

Cool glad to hear it broke free Bob!!!! That's a good start. Keep at it!!

Carl WD-40 is good for killing bees also.

 

Well it's final..and she probably got half as usual... seems to turn a little stiff in the area where we started out at, but that was to be expected. If possible tomorrow it will be spun around and attached to tehe engine stand. Gotta get a path cleared/smoothed and move the project boat so it can be routed beside the house back to the $1000,000.00 lean to.

 

I was told if you sprayed your fishing bait you would catch fish. This true and legal?

 

I've sprayed it on fish bait and dry flies too!

 

I dunno but some of those punks in scholl use to spray their weed with that and roach pesticide.. they're fishbait now, so I suppose it's semi legal and works.. LMAO!!

 

rogue40; did it work on the fishies?
I can see it now, a big rainbow oil slick when the fly lands.
I have a Sage rod and reel but i'm a newbie and have only
caught oak, pine, redwood trees, the wife, my hat and a few
surface stumps in the streams. It looks so cool when someone
that knows what they're doing catching fish, hell I feed them with bait.

 

You can still pull the engine apart from the tranny, the torque convereter will pull out, you will be ok, then you can put it on the engine stand.

 

explain how the torq converter will pull out when the engine wouldn't turn.. please.. It's a done deal now but I'm listenting for those less fortunate enough to read that..

 

Bobby, if you were to separate the tranny from the engine without removing the torque converter bolts, the TC would remain on the flexplate, the tranny would still slide off the torque converter. You would still have to remove the torque converter to remove the flexplate to mount the engine.

You NEVER want to try reassembling with the TC attached to the flexplate. Getting the TC seated in the tranny first eliminates damage to the tranny.

 

Ahhh yes I see what yas saying now.. usually I pull the motor and leave the tranny/trq-conv stationary..didnt occur to me the thing slides off just the same lol..

On that note.. Nice time to speak up damnit!!! Now I probably have scored cyl walls.. LOL

 

My bad! Knowing that you were going for a tear-down, I just figgured you'd do it the "easy way". I guess you're just not lazy enough there Bobby.
