The C 6 is definately the best Ford transmission that can currently be rebuilt or modified by most shops. The easiest way to ID one is to look at the case, The C 6 is a 1 piece casting and the FMX, Ford O Matic and Cruise O Matic had seperate bellhousings.
In 1963 Ford built some A/FX drag cars with automatics and these were reputed to be the Lincoln transmission which I believe was only a beefed up Cruis O Matic. They performed really well, so which ever one you choose should be alright if your trans builder knows his stuff.
