I don't think the heavy 3 speeds are sychronized. I've only had trucks with either the four speed or light duty 3 speed. I have a heavy 3 speed on my shelf. I got it from someone but never had it in a truck.

Go to the '48-56 Ford truck board on FTE as Mike suggested. There are a lot of guys there with all the information you need.

Here's a direct link:
