Just joined and looking for some advice! I have a 1995 f150 that I ripped out the 300 and built a mid 80's windsor for and i am running the factory 5speed manual and 1356 transfer case. I also was able to run my stock starter from the 300 straight six. It has 8" suspension lift and 3" body lift. I usually use it for shows and now love to take it to Michigan's Silver Lake Sand Dunes. I want to remove my 5speed and install the C6. Didn't know what i would need to make the swap happen. I will just put a floor shifter in, so i can keep my steering column. Will i have to switch starters, cross members, both drive shafts, Headers? 

Already have the C6

 

ANY HELP OR ADVICE WOULD BE GREAT!

 

THANKS

yo BW,
I tried to reply twice so far, but I got error messages,
I have searched for such a swap in my WORD notd from the old e mail boards of the 90s to currect www sites to no avail.
 
Maybe reverse engineer the swap, Such as search for a C6 swap to M5OD?  Some results so far;

"Just by switching to an automatic you'll increase your torque output over the manual as your torque converter doubles to triples your torque output the first second or so...that's why you will NOT need the low planetary set." by Deen

"have to make sure the output shafts are the same spline and length between the m5od and the c6" by dc

You'll need to address any EEC (aka Electronic Engine Control or Computer) wiring and device or switch issues such as theManual Lever Position/Transmission Range (MLPS/TR) Sensor and the Neutral Safety Switch (NSS aka NDS) for the M5OD.
As of 1994, the Neutral Safety Switch or Neutral Drive Switch (NDS) is referred to as a Manual Lever Position Sensor (MLPS) or Transmission Range (TR) Sensor
