What engine/tranny combos were originally offered for F100s in 1966?

According to Wikipedia:

# 1965-1966 - 240ci (3.9 L) straight-6, 150HP
# 1965-1966 - 300ci (4.9 L) straight-6, 170HP
# 1965-1966 - 352ci (5.8 L) FE V8, 208HP

As you'll find out many 352's magically become 390's when they're up for sale. Just gotta check in person to know what yer getting.

Tranny's from memory

3 on the tree
granny 4 on the floor
Cruise-O-Matic automatic (rare)(especially rare on a six)

According to my shop manual, you could get a C4 as well.

Don't forget the 3 speed on the column with Overdrive

Actually there were lots of engine's offered for 1966 - For f100's the two inline sixes mentioned above at 240 and 300 ci, and the V8 352. But they also offered an inline six in 170 ci for P-100's. Then for the big fellas (B,F,N,T series) you could get either a 330 MD or HD V8, a 360 or 391 HD V8. If that wouldn't do ya, Ford offered a 401, 477 and 534 SHD V8. From there you went diesel from 220 to 300 to a Cummins C-160 or 180, or the NH series, Then they offered the Cummins V-6 & V-8, then the Detroit Diesel 8V-71N.
No telling what you'll find at the pick & pull.

thanks,
Doug
