New Guy Says Hi, 1964 Galaxie 500XL Convertible

Danny I bought a set of the cast iron shorty headers on ebay your limited on headers because of the cross brace on convertibles. nice car !!!

Welcome. FPA (Ford Powertrain Applications) and Sanderson make shorty headers. FPA is more expensive but it also a better product in my opinion. Good luck with the Cruis-o stall convertor. I purchased one from Broader Performance in Texas and tried running it with a 431 FE stroker. Either the motor was too much or convertor was garbage cause after 3 weeks there was filings in the tranny fluid and I ended up losing the entire thing less than a week later. C-6 is an easy swap and costs less than rebuilding a Cruis-o. Only draw back is trying to make the shifter linkage on a floor shifter work on an XL. Feel free to ask me questions via PM if you want to. I've redone everything you've spoke about with the exception of A/C. When it gets warm up here we enjoy it instead of trying to cool it down :^)
