78-79 Clutch linkage, 4 speed, and 390 Engine question

[Ric330]

I was curious myself so I dug around a little. It apparently was used by Ford from 66-76 in light duty F100 4x4s with the New Process transmission. There was no neutral position. Here's what the **** looked like.
...apparently you can't use the word "kn0b" here. hehe

The 3/4 tons we drove. I think they also has just high and low--might have been the same transfer case too.

I just read where from the 66-72 bronco had a lower 2:46 --low range. Then the 73-77 had 2:34 low range

Ric330 is right. Alot of peoplethink the 390 is a big block. Its the medium size. The 429-460 are big blocks. The 390 will go into the 78-79 with very little work. And about 4 inches forward of the firewall. You don,t need the 4 row radiator--3 row would work fine. I can post pic later if you want. You,ll have to drill or burn holes in the mount towers. The transmisson bolted up. I don,t rememeber if the piolet bearing is the same or not. It might have to be changed--check it first.

I bolted it up to a 4 speed manual transmission.
