RE:You're right!

You motivated me to go grab one of my "sources". A '67 Full Size Ford/Merc shop manual. And there it is in Section 7, page 63. A list of apps. for the FX-MX transmission: all low po engines including the 390-2V with column shift application only. Go to the C-6 section, p. 94, and it shows all the apps being FE only starting with a 390-2V and going through them all, 2Vs/4Vs/410s/428s/column and floor shift.

So thanks Dangerous and SDP for another dose of humility. But let me disagree with you SDP with regard to your old mechanics theory that there may have been strength issues with the C6. That doesn't seem logical based on the applications of the C6. First the '66 390GTA and 428PI. My theory is that there was a large inventory of cruisomatics and the trans engineers redesigned the cruiso valve body that allowed for the same shift modes as the C6. Just a bean counter thing.

"We've got how many of those Cruisomatics?! Isn't there someway we can use 'em up?"

Thanks again guys. I'm just sitting here in awe at how much I have yet to learn. Don, go find a C6 and don't waste time installing that '68 FE FMX(cruiso without a green dot).
This thread, so far...
