C4's. Although there is a "baby" C6 with the smaller bell housing pattern, it was not offered in bumpsides.

Re: Which trans?
Didn't they come with the 351c?

Re: Which trans?
Don't quote me but I believe the 351C bolt pattern is different than the SBF 302/351W pattern.Fo-Mo-Co on Wed Jan 26, 2011 8:36 am

Mine came from an 80's E-Series van.
Wow, thanks Bobby...
Now I've got a "little 302 with a baby C-6" pushing my one ton!

Re: Which trans?
That's alright! I also forgot about my shifter...
I'm perfectly happy with my "little 302" / "baby C-6" and my "ghetto shifter"!
Sorry for the:

Re: Which trans?
Thanks, it was what I could afford for now. Real happy with the C-6, (except at highway speeds). I've had many C-4's and just didn't want another, (especially in a one ton). And the C-6 being plentiful helped make my decision.67fordman1 on Thu Jan 27, 2011 11:42 pm

Re: Which trans?
Not trying to steel the thread...but along the same lines. I will have a mildly built 302 (cam, heads, 4bbl)...will a c4 still be well suited for this motor?

Hey,
I thought most 302's were backed up with a FMX.
