The Ford C6 uses engine vaccum to sense the shift points. In a diesel engine setup there is a vaccum regulator to accomplish the same thing as in a gas engine.

More than likely it is a C6. If the shift indicator has a circled "D" (for overdrive) it is probably an AOD. But I am not certain they put AODs behind 351 (5.8) that year.

Will a C6 transmission fit a 390 ford engine?

Depends on the C6 transmission you have. They made several variants for different Ford Engine types for the FE and 385 Big Blocks. So For a 390 you will need a C6 that mates to an FE engine.
