Guy I work with says he has a C4 tranny laying in his garage that he wants to get rid of. Hes not sure if it is a C4 or C6 tranny so I'm going to grab some serial numbers or something off of it and look it up. If its the C6 will I still be able to bolt it up to my car? If I can pick it up for like $150-$200 would I be doing good or is it not worth that much?

I would say yes, but I have already talked to you about it.

I may be wrong but I think they make a small bellhousing for a C6 so you can use one in place of a C4

c-4

If I were you, I'd use the c4. A c6 is designed for 351w, and bigger motors(thats what I've learned). A c4 doesn't suck up as much of your torque, as a c6 will. I have plenty of buddies that have built really fast cars, and all the autos were c4. A beefy c4 is good for a 9second car. Thats just my thought about a c4 versus a c6 a c6 will bolt up just as easily as a c-4, but what really are the benefits? I'm curious myself ??

Just got back form the guys house. I havent given him a price and I couldnt get any serial numbers off of the C4 because it was covered in mud. His dad said it IS a C4 tranny, 3 speed auto, out of a 1970's Ford F100. Are all C4's made the same? If so I'm going to offer him $50 and see what says.

Other tranny looks huge, guessing its the C6. It was clean and these are the numbers I was able to get off of it.

Let me know if I should still go for that C4 if I can get it for under $______. (fill in the blank with a price) He said it was running when he took it off the truck, but it was covered in mud so I couldnt see anything on it.
