Now with more speeds!!!
I switched out the 5speed in the 720 (above) for the original 4speed laying in the bed ,, took the short 4speed outta the 510 and bolted in the long tail .. It is for the most part done but needs fluid that i dont have tonight ,, and the hole in floor fit-n-finished..
first i used the search button and found C boad posted driveline lengths in tr8ers build and had my unit cut down using his measurements..
My old one and cut down one together.
I also bought a trans mount from David in South Park ,, he makes the ones that you see on Ebay http://vg30.com/ but i was in the area and just bought it in person.
The guy i bought the truck from said he installed a new clutch but had never driven it,,, the disc still has stencil on it so i am believing it,,
Here`s the old 4speeder and clutch that had only been in 510 for 2 years, ,, oh and the raggedy shifter ,,
Trans in position with new crossmember ,,, wooo hooo!!
On the Ebay ad he says that the crossmember wont fit a 71 because the floor bolts aren`t the same as all the rest ,,,but,, i bought it to save time anyway , and it fit just fine..
Car build date was 11/71 so it might be changed early for 72 model year .....IDK
