Are these both C4 Transmissions?
I realize this is mainly for GM products but I had a question about these transmissions.
These both have the number RF-C4-AR TA105-A stamped onto the front of the tranny. They both have different bell housings. One was off a straight 6 200 engine from a 67 mustang. The other is off a 68 Mustang that had a 289.
The tranny on the right has a 4 on the top? Does that 4 mean C4? I put C4 next to the one I was told was a C4.

Not being a Ford enthusiast over the years I had to do some research on a nasty C4 I built for a long time client back in the spring. I was able to find a wealth of information by typing in the part number of certain parts... I guess i was wrong in suggesting the number you provided would work.
However, I did find this resource that will help you out. http://www.mustangcentral.net/tech/c4.html
Specifically what is it that you're trying to accomplish? I've built many C4's and C5's over the years and might just have a solution for you....

We removed the straight 6 200 a couple years ago. I want to get this tranny, flywheel, torque converter, and starter onto this engine. (This tranny is from a 68 Mustang that had a 289)
I just want to get one of these transmissions onto the 74 302 V8 that I purchased. Then put it into our 67 Mustang to at least get it mocked up and started.
The flywheel on the 74 302 is too big so I am going to try an use the flywheel, torque converter, and tranny out of the 68 Mustang that had a 289.
I bought a starter last night for a 68 Mustang. I am going to attempt to bolt this stuff up tomorrow Thursday the 18th.

Some of the parts can be swapped between a c4 and a c5 unit. However if the intermediate band adjustment screw(the front one closest to the pump) is a course thread then the case is a true C4. If it is a fine thread then it is a C5. From the years you have listed they should both be C4 units unless someone has swapped the transmissions in these vehicles. HTH Vince

Those are both early C-4 units , vents being in the case . Later C-4s moved to the extension housings . Yes the C-5s had a fine thread front band adjustmens thread and a deeper bell housing !
