That should be a great swap. Make sure you hook up the transmission's throttle cable and you're in business. ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 M code 351C 4V/FMX/3.25 open '72 Mustang Sprint Coupe 351C 4V/FMX/4.30 Trac Lok '94 F-150 XL 5.8L/E4OD/3.55 Limited Slip '97 Probe GTS 2.5L DOHC Ford.

No, it will have to be shortened. I also should have mentioned that you'll need a new transmission crossmember. Both National Parts Depot and Mustangs Plus sell them, I believe.------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 M code 351C 4V/FMX/3.25 open '72 Mustang Sprint Coupe 351C 4V/FMX/4.30 Trac Lok '94 F-150 XL 5.8L/E4OD/3.55 Limited Slip '97 Probe GTS 2.5L DOHC Ford.

You might want to look over my C4 to AOD swap write up in the technical articles archive: https://mustangsandmore.com/ubb/DanJonesC4AODswap.htmlThat one details a swap into a '71 but we also did one into a '69 using an FMX crossmember. Dan Jones

Hi Lyle, I would be very interested in the frame mounts & the crossmember for the 69 Coupe. You said the parts would be free, thank you let me know how much the shipping is & I will send you a money order or a check for the cost to send them to me. Thanks, Mike. PS- Thanks for the info Dan. ------------------ Mike & Robin 65 Mustang Fastback 87 Crown Vic 96 Ranger Extd Cab 99 Explorer Sport M&M #- 890 MCA #- 04549[This message has been edited by Mike65 (edited 08-21-2001).]
