I have a column filled with information that goes down to 200 rows. I need to remove the letters FC from the beginning text in those rows and replace it with 605ACE
 
Does the string "FC" appear elsewhere in your data? If not, you could turn on your macro recorder and go to Edit > Replace, then replace FC with 605ACE.

If "FC" does appear elsewhere, then use a 'helper column' with this formula:
="605ACE"&right(A1,len(A1)-2)
That will create a string consisting of "605ACE" and whatever is in the cell, minus the first two characters.
