PML's stock capacity transmission pan for Ford C6 transmissions has a low profile for full size 1960's and 1970's cars. PML also makes an extra capacity Ford C6 transmission pan for Ford trucks and SUVs with the C6. The deep pan provides provides extra fluid for F250 and F350 trucks which have more room for a larger pan. A lower profile pan can accommodate more applications and provide the strength and cooling benefits of an cast aluminum transmission pan.
The Ford C6 transmission is found on many full size Ford, Lincoln and Mercury cars, for example:
66 – 69 Comet
67 – 78 Cougar
64 – 70 Fairlane
66 – 74 Galaxie
66 – 79 Lincolns
66 – 80 LTD
77 – 79 LTD II
66 – 72 Meteor
68 – 76 Montego
68 – 74 Monterey
66 – 79 Ranchero
66 – 79 Thunderbird
68 – 76 Torino
These classic Fords had options for several different transmissions. The C4, Cruise-o-Matic, and manual transmissions were also common. Please verify your transmission and look for any interference with a larger aftermarket pan before ordering.
The image at left shows three stock Ford C6 tranny pans with the PML deep and low profile pans. (Click on image to view larger picture.)
Inside of the pan shown here.
PML designed this pan to work with stock gaskets and filters. Filter supports are not needed as the filter bolts on to the valve body. The fluid level is at the same place with a PML pan or a stock pan so an extension is not needed.
This shows two possible filter kits for Ford C6 transmissions. They both include a rubber-cork type gasket, which we recommended for use with a PML transmission pan.
These are from Fram and have part numbers FT1025 and FT1037 (longer pick-up spout).
