Econoline trans ????
So I've got this 65 E van w/a 170 6 cyl and 3spd...now I have acsess to an econoline C-4 from a 240 but I dont think it will bolt up. Am I wrong? is there such a thing as a small block 6cyl automatic bell housing? I once had a 64 falcon 200ci w/3spd auto.
pm please |

Re: Econoline trans ????
I am not sure, but I have found a lot of good information on the vintage-vans forum. Lots of van guys on there.

Re: Econoline trans ????
the auto transmissions for the early econolines are shorter than a standard c-4 and the have no crossmembers as they have mount on top of tail section. hit the yahoo group of early econolines as their is lots of great info there.

Re: Econoline trans ????
You can use the tailshaft from that transmission on a small bell housing
C-4 from a 200, Maverick, Falcon. Mustang etc. The tailshaft is the only part that is specific to the Econoline. The bell housings are not interchangeable. I just did mine and used a 65 Econoline tialshaft mounted to a 71 Maverick 200 C-4. Fred

A C4 from a 200 six from 1965 all the way up to early 80's Mustangs and Fairmonts will work.
