what trany do I have?
Hey, I was wondering how I can figure out what transmission I have.
I recently replaced my U-Joints and I replaced the tail shaft seal at the same time, but the only seal that would fit was one thats made for a C6 transmission. I thought I was just a tail shaft from a C6 but I have been haveing problems with the speedomiter gear. I put a 16 tooth left rotation gear in and it was the wrong roation gear (wich I was told was the right gear for a C4 trany) So if you could point me in the way to figure out what I have that would be great.

yeah, is it somewhere that I can get to it without haveing to take stuff apart? are the casting numbers in the same place for the C4 and C6? (I would assume yes because you said to report them to find out)

What engine do you have? If the bell housing and body are one piece it's a C6. If the bell is removable and the body is aluminum, it's a C4. If the bell is removable and the body of the tranny is cast iron, it's an FMX. In Mustangs, C6's were only used on big blocks. C4's were used on small blocks and FMX's were sometimes used on 69/70 small blocks but were most commonly used on 71-73 Clevelands. Hope this helps.

My FMX number is on the driver's side above the linkage, may be hard to see though. The pans and gaskets also may have different shapes and patterns that could be used to figure it out. FMXs were used mostly on 351s IIRC.

ok, I guess its just a C4 trany with a C6 tail shaft because I checked a cupple of the ways you guys told me and they all came up as a C4.
Thanks for all your help guys.
