Sorry to continually rehash this subject.In order to pacify my Chief FinancialI Officer,I want to use a tranny that will bolt right up, without an adapter,to my 292.I need to find a rebuildable FOM.COM,or (am I correct?) FMX.I realize the advantages of several other automatics,but this is my (possibly unwise) decision.

Beside fabricating mounts,changing driveshaft lengths,fabricating linkage(2 barrel Holley),what all steps do I need to take.I want to start gathering all the parts now,as I find good deals.The current transmission is a 4 speed manual.Has anyone done this same swap,and can maybe walk me through it?My apologies in advance for my ignorance,but I don't want to screw things up,or spend more money than I have to.

Right now,I am doing brake improvements.Next will be the auto tranny swap,then finally adding power assist steering.Trying to stay Ford.Thanks,Steve
