C6 with overdrive unit
 

any body thought about it? i was thinking about the c6 but the milage would be bad without overdrive but its lot cheaper to. just a thought thought

Look on the "big Bronco" forum. This was discussed extensively. :)

what powerstroke was equipped with a c6?

None......Not even sure they will bolt up.

6.9 idi had C6.
They were real slugs. 6.9 with 3 gears.

yeah what bill said

The Powerstroke was available with the C6 through the 1996 model year. It was also available with the 6.9L and the 7.3L IDI. All of them had the same bellhousing pattern, so any of them will bolt up.

What diesel model's was the C6 available in 95 and 96?
Last i know of was 7.3 IDI's in 94.
Never saw a powerstroke with a C6.

Bill

Me either. owned a 95 with an E4 though

It was available in the F250, F-350, F-Superduty, E-250, and E-350, with the 5.8L, 7.5L, or the Powerstroke. They didn't sell many of them, but I have seen them. I also worked in Ford's Automatic Transmission Engineering at the time. We were building them.

This would be one of those "why?" moments.

Mark, were those the Cab & Chassis trucks? I seem to re-call seeing C6's in motor homes & the like.

They were cab & chassis, pickups, and vans.

Mainly it was for fleets. They didn't care about fuel economy, they cared about reliability and low purchase cost. They were also available retail, so I have to believe some were sold retail, but I don't know that for sure.

Think U-haul. They don't care at all about fuel economy because they don't buy any fuel. The customer buys all of the fuel.

mark i believe that cuss the c6 is hard to kill
