RE: FE427 and C4 is a hot combo in a lightweight Ford.

You can stop looking for the elusive Canadian truck bell housing that hooks a C4 to a FE. That was all a hoax. Seems that a well known transmission builder cut the front portion off of a C6 and welded the flat rear section of a C4 bell housing to it, making it an adaptor. He has since had them cast up but will only sell the bellhousing with a racing C4. Hardly streetable to say the least.

Look at any streetrod magazine and you will see advertizements showing aftermarket early Ford frames. You will see how the X is modified and will accept any type transmission you want to use. Just copy the design.

Go with the C6 behind the FE. It is strong, dependable, and can be made to run as quick as a C4 with a lot less breakage.

This thread, so far...
