thanks for the reply , only problem is I don't have a transmission for a 352 and the one I have for a 6 cyl is still in the truck. Why I wanted to know is if they are the same I will put the 6 cyl trans into another truck that has a 352 with auto in it . Thanks , Tom

when backing up put it in second before putting it in first and it will go in smoothly while you are still rolling backwards. Tom
