Hi Guys, I have a 79 F100 351 Cleveland, factory manual (4 Speed) but would like to swap it over for an auto (C6) can anyone tell me what I will need for the swap??? Steering Column (with Auto shift) Pedal Assembly Flywheel? Gearbox Tailshaft Torque Converter
Will I need to find anything else?? Matt

Has your radiator got a tranny cooler in it? Don't forget your tranny cooler lines, your ring gear bolts are usually shorter than your flywheel bolts ( as its thinner). Also, don't forget to remove the spigot bearing in the back of the crankshaft. Merry X
