Post Re: 1956 Ford Truck, C4 Tranny Pan Problems

On a cork gasket (back in the day), I used chassis grease (sparingly) to hold the gasket while mounting.

If the pan is warped (askew - college word) and there is no suitable service replacement, try tightening the fasteners from center to out, alternating side to side. Start with half-torque then go around again at full torque spec.

Do you have any idea what the trans came out of?
