What kind of transmission will hookup to a ford 460ci engine?

Question

I'm putting a 460 in a mid 50's ford truck and would like to install the best transmission combo I could fine.

Answer 1

a C6 will work

Answer 2

a c-6 heavy duty should do it,watch out though because it,s hard to tell the difference between a regular c-6,and a c-6 heavy duty,the heavy duty has a larger oil pan on it,and it also has better clutch pack,and heavier bands in it,they were mostly used in motor homes and f-350 truck,s,but you can find them around,expect to pay about 500.00 though,there not cheap,,but they are good and reliable,,and most of all very tough,,hope this helps you.
