is it a Cruiseomatic or a C-4?
Friend has a 260 & an automatic tranny. The tranny has a 1965 & later starter on it (no plunger, just the gear type) He knows little or nothing about that except it came out of a 1963 Galaxie.

Re: is it a Cruiseomatic or a C-4?
First year for the C-4 was 1964. That said, can you get a picture of the pan? Any numbers on it? Any other info?

Both have removable bellhousings, but doesn't the C4 have an aluminium case versus the iron case of the COM and FOM?

From these pictures it should be easy to tell what you have.

Thanks Rick, that's why I asked for a picture of his pan...

Re: is it a Cruiseomatic or a C-4?
thanks guys, I'll check that out. Its somewhat greasy but looks like to be an aluminum case and I'll scour thru it for a casting number

Re: is it a Cruiseomatic or a C-4?
If you can flip it over, look at the diagrams of the shape of the pans. A C-4 as 11 bolts, a FMX/Cruise-o has 13, etc.
