My C4 trans tube from my 75 torino was unpainted. From the factory I can't ever remember the tubes being painted (was a ford tech for 25 years). the cross member goes above the brackets, Check very closely for mark denoting foward. I'm not sure on the paint markings. ------------- John 75Gran Torino 4spd  |

I have a 1973 Ranchero Squire with factory installed 351CJ and C6 transmission. I just pulled the transmission. The filler tube is not painted. The cross member mounts on top and I will look at the transmission tomorrow to see what color. |
