I believe you will need a C6. But you could contact Art Carr or baumannengineering.com as they can convert any Ford over to the newer auto trans with overdrive.

Hey Bo, A friend of mine had this problem also, the reason he was going thru clutches so fast was that, something to do with the clutch fork being bent or something. It may be someting to check out.
