FMX sizes question
#11
Master...
No problem, actually I didn't even know someone sold 5 K shock towers.
I guess if someone was restoring a rotted true boss 429 then maybe.

5 K for a shock tower, I don't think I paid 5 K for any of my cars I have at this time.

As for your list [ copy below ] I think that is correct.
Watch out on the C6 or actually any auto, make sure you get one set up for floor shift.


I am thinking that the following items of parts would be needed to do the C-6 conversion:
Shifter assembly CAN BE FROM C6 OR C4 FMX ONE WOULD HAVE NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH INSIDE
Transmission support brace
Carb kickdown bar/linkage
new peddle assembly COULD USE YOUR ORIG PEDALS
correct driveshaft with yolk
small block c-6 transmission with removeable tailshaft housing
ALSO NEED A NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH -

C6 OR FMX OUT OF
69 - 70 302, 351W or C and
71-3 - 302 OR 351 C MUSTANGS OR COUGARS ARE THE SAME TRANS

Good luck
Don

Hey Master, you also may need to snag
FOR C6 or FMX these parts are different
flex plate
block spacer plate
inspection plate
bolts

Might be a different starter too VS your 4 speed one?

FMX has a small 4-5 inch ring that goes on flex plate too

I finally picked up two trannies.
I got a c-6 small block tranny that included the following:
It came with the transmission lines that go to the radiater.
It also came with the torque converter.....(thats it)......Note: this c-6 is going in my 1970 Mach 1 next year when I get all the parts.....I gave 100 bucks for it.


I also got a small block FMX out of a 71 mustang coupe for 40 bucks.
It came with the following: Torque converter, flex plate w bolts, tranny lines to the radiater......thats it. I hope to be able to put it in my sons 67 mustang coupe with the correct tranny support brace.

I picked up a manual brake peddle set for an automatic tranny out of a 69 cougar that I hope will fit in the 67 mustang.... I paid 10 bucks for it. If not then maybe it will substitute in my 70 mach 1 car when I convert it to automatic transmission if the brake switch lines up. I think that someone once told me that the peddle has a slightly smaller surface area thats all.SCo_hmmthink
