Well I can't find a t5 that cheap and it'll cost 500+ to fix mine and I would really rather a auto anyways. I can get a 4r70w for about 350 so about how much more will it cost to do the swap
If this wasnt already in my car im thinking a c-4 would be plenty if built right. One of my friends has a c-4 in his 65 and is running mid 9s at 150ish id say it works. And i agree boost is the shiz if ya can get it to hook!This is great news. If I ever decide to build a drag car, it's gonna be boosted with a C6But I'm not even done with my DD yet so idk why I'm even wanting another project already.
And yeah the C6 is a tough SOB. It's just a lot of people don't like them because they're heavy and they take quite a bit of power away
I just wanna put a C6 in my own vehicle because it isn't very common. At least not where I liveIf this wasnt already in my car im thinking a c-4 would be plenty if built right.

Ya not very common here in portland either I get funny looks when i tell people im running a C6.I just wanna put a C6 in my own vehicle because it isn't very common. At least not where I live
I have one in mine i am also running a turbo with about a 3.5 inch down pipe running right past the trans.hard to see in these pics but its what i got right now.There are 2 types of SBF C6 tranny cases that I am aware of, maybe other designs, but I know of 2 distinct cases.
One is a smooth back, where the top of the bell and tranny are smooth, then there is a version where there are ribs running from the top of the bell, and down the spine of the tranny.
If I had a choice, assuming the internals are just as strong, I'd run the ribbed version.
You have to figure that the ribs will not only add to the strength of the case, but also aid cooling.
Ford added them for a reason I assume...
IT SHOULD BE NOTED that the C6 is a very wide tranny.
I don't know about the exhaust on a Fox, but having done the swap in older cars, I ran into issues with exhaust, especially headers, not clearing the body of the transmission. Just a heads up, you'd have to speak with someone that has a C6 Fox to know for sure what works and what doesn't.

Well nobody's ever seen a Mach 1 styled foxbody but that sure as hell didn't stop you from building one now did it?Really? You just wanna put a hard to find, heavy as hell, power sucking monster behind your engine because it's not very common? That makes as much sense as pis sing in the wind..........it's not very common either.
And it don't matter where you live,...it's not very common anywhere.
Zing! Yeah they are heavy but i guess 10.7 isnt bad with a heavy trans maybe i would run a 10.6 with something else.Well nobody's ever seen a Mach 1 styled foxbody but that sure as hell didn't stop you from building one now did it?
And just to clarify since my last post did come off a little mean, I thoroughly liked your car. But what my point was is that it's something you wanted to do whether or not it made sense to anyone else. That's all I meant, no disrespectReally?

it'd be different if a transmission could be seen, or appreciated for any other benefit other than living forever behind an engine that it routinely steals at least 50 hp from.Well nobody's ever seen a Mach 1 styled foxbody but that sure as hell didn't stop you from building one now did it?
Try 10.30 0r .40 w/ a c-4 instead.Zing! Yeah they are heavy but i guess 10.7 isnt bad with a heavy trans maybe i would run a 10.6 with something else.
I guess it could be that much faster I dunno. Like i said before this was already in the car when i got it so im just gonna leave it till it breaks. If it ever does.Try 10.30 0r .40 w/ a c-4 instead.
If all it cost to run a trans that weighs 50 lbs more than it's little brother, with all kinds of extra internal rotational mass churning away was just a tenth, why in the hell isn't everybody doing it?
