Need the Flex Plate (Flywheel). The Transmission I can get.

  

Same as a Ford truck with a Cruise o Matic up to 1964 with a 292 

Yes I know that. There are a lot of People looking for One. If You have access to one or more let Me know. Google search has turned up nothing for Sale. Ebay don't have. Even Green Auto Parts which is the biggest Obsolete Ford Dealer in the World don't have either Original Part # or the updated # for Trucks.If they were available as Repro's they would sell Lots of them. Very very hard to find. B8A-6375-D C3TZ-6375-A. Try a Google Search.

  

the fordomatics in trucks had them as well.just sold one that was from a57 this spring and it had one.got a real surprise when i saw it.

I just got Email from Green Auto Sales. B8A-6375-D is not replaced by C3TZ-6375-A which was used in 63-64 MD Trucks . The early Ones like You had must Interchangeable. I don't have a Truck Catalog for prior to "63 to check. Still looking. If U find One let Me know.

  

Oldcarmark.  Thanks for bringing the trans conversion up

I started collecting parts 5 years ago and was almost ready to get underway when I had some health problems. I have just inventoried what I have and find that in addition to the bushing I also need the flexplate reinforcement ring

I see some available as a 3 piece set  but I think they are for the 55-56 new style replacement flexplate,  anyone know for sure if the B8 flexplate uses a 1 or 3 pc reinforcement ??

I still will have to have a driveshaft made as the FMX is certainly shorter than the 3 speed stick it will be replacing but that can wait till after the trans is in the car for measurements

Wish I could help with the flexplate but I only have 1 and you are right they are very hard to find

Have a look at attached Picture. Last Line under 6A366. Requires One but seems thicker than the Individual Ones.  .B8AZ-6A366-A

  

I was looking for more Information on the Webb when I ran across an old Post on the Hamb Site. Apparently there was an Article in Y-Block Magazine regarding using an FMX Valve Body to replace the Stock One in a Fordomatic that makes the Fordo a true 3 Speed starting off in Low and shifting automatically to 2nd and 3rd. The Article would have been prior to 2006. Does Anyone have this particular Issue in their Collection of Y-Block Magazine?

  

i remember that article.it was a bunch of bull someone wrote in.i dont know way bruce even put it in.nothing more was heard of it.

Oldcarmark,  thanks for the info on the reinforcement plate, now I just need to find 1

As far as the bushing goes I did contact flat o years back and he did not want to sell parts.  I did some playing around tonight and found a common peice of 1 1/4 black pipe is not far off what I need


Y block crank recess 1.572  (y block 2 speed convertor I have (purchased in error) measures 1.570)
Black iron pipe OD 1.650  (I am sure if I look at the big box stores china pipe I could find something slightly smaller)
Black Iron pipe ID 1.385 
FMX convertor hub (not verified as my FMX is in storage) 1.375
 
I am willing to bet that if I cleaned up the black iron pipe a little I could make it a tight interference fit and when driven into the crank recess the inside diameter would tighten up just enough to make a perfect fit for the FMX convertor.

Nothing will be happening till winter but does anyone (besides me)  think this will work??

Got to do this soon as my days of bench pressing trannys is coming to an end,  old age sucks
