Posted by J B Long on 11/3/2006, 5:54 pm, in reply to "6 cyl swap" If it's a 200 it's a bolt in. Granada should already have the correct oil pan and dipstick location. Your original transmission will bolt to any 200 through about 1981. The 250 is taller, wider at the mounts, and has a totally different bellhousing pattern, so your original transmission won't work. It's possible to swap a 250 into a Falcon, but it's a *lot* more work and expense than a 200. JL --Previous Message--

First you need to determine whether it's a 200 or 250. Easiest way is the water pump bolts - 200 has 3; 250 has 4.
