According to the Master Parts Catalog, this rod was used on all 1969 Cougars equipped with a C6 transmission which includes the 390IP / 428CJ / 428SCJ. Our research and in hand examples off original Cougars would differ. Because of the different intake manifold used on the 390, Autolite carburetor vs. Holley and different exhaust manifolds we have found that the 1969 390 IP / C6 is distinctly different than the 428CJ and stands on its own by not interchanging with any other Ford product. This is the correct kick down rod for the 390 with c6 transmission.
