switching over to a C6

haven't been back on the site for a while
been working on modifactions to the T-bird and
then the C6 for my 66 F100 fell into my lap...ouch!
but really couldn't pass up a freshly rebuilt C6 that just came out of a 67 F100 restored show truck and the owners were dropping in a Lighting Drive train,
the guy just got tired of tripping over the transmission in his shop.
I got the trani and drive shaft for $300 plus $100 for the fuel to pick it up and bring it back
now I've been doing my home work on the other parts I will need
and
it looks like I got another $900 or so to spend

my question is and that is if I really have a question
Does Oreilly have a flex plate? and how would you ask for it?
the only one I think I've found is from Jegs for $200

can't seem to get it over the counter at Oreilly's by telling them its for my 66 with a stroked 352!
and it did not seem to work with the kid yesterday when I told him to look under 67 behind a FE390

User Fellro is a partsman for Autozone...he may be able to help you on that front...and if need be, you can cross reference PN's/item numbers at O'Reilly's.

1965/76 F100/350 FE Flexplate same-o, same-o.

My question is, does O'Reilly have a flexplate? The only one I think I've found is from Jegs for $200. [confused]
$200.00 is outrageous!
If your '66 F100 has C-O-M, it's the same flexplate as a C6.

C5AZ-6375-D .. Flywheel (Flexplate) / Obsolete

Last MSRP: $94.63 / Dealer net cost: $63.40.

Applications: 1965/67 F100/350 352 with MX Cruise-O-Matic / 1968/76 F100/350 360/390 C6 / 1965/67 352/390 Passenger Cars FX/MX C-O-M / 1968/71 390 Passenger Cars C6.

HAVEN FORD in Haven KS has 1 = 620-465-2252.

JST AUTOMOTIVE in Lebanon TN has 1 = 615-443-3086.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 2 = 800-543-4959.

HAVEN will prolly be the cheapest.

Just a bit late to the party, FRA 212 is the Pioneer #, available through both Autozone and O'Riellys.For whatever reason, they list nothing for 352's, but have 360's and 390's covered if you go to 1970.
