4 speed manual? Is first gear really low, like you rarely use it? It is either a T19 or a NP 435.

Which one do you like to ride in more? Are they both reliable and in decent shape?

C6 is about it, never saw an FMX or C4 with the proper bellhousing pattern

I would say related because the car has a smart switch for the high beams and all that. sounds like when the column came loose it pulled loose a connector

10-12 on the highway would be a place to start. Could be better is the motor is good, tune is good, etc. Mine sometimes got as high as 14

I would check the speed sensor. I dont know where it lives in the Focus, on rear drive vehicles it is on the diff casting. When I have had problems like that, the sensor has died, easy to replace and wasn't expensive

Because the dealer does the update, have you checked there? The local dealer did mine not too long ago

It isn't a super simple drop in, but is pretty close to it. Minor differences in parts and dimensions is all. Make sure you get the proper oil pan, different between cars and trucks and between 302 and 351. If both are carberated, not enough other differences to worry about. Fuel injected adds...

your truck, why do you care what others think?

What are you trying to do? A repair? Save a little fuel? What part of the unit are you wanting to do, entire thing, the bits under the hood or the bits under the dash?

Junkyard would be the cheapest, but potentially the worse shape, too

I would use a throttle body type of system, from Holley or Edelbrock. They bolt on like a carb. You will need an electric pump and, in some cases depending on the vehicle, a return line. Summit and Jeggs sell them

If you are talking about the Lambo type, kits start at 2800 and go up from there. Some cars are cheaper, but a quick look, that is what I found
