Holy crap :shock: That's not going to bolt right in is it??

Mine had a 455 30 over and a Turbo 350HD trans.
When I got rid of the car I sold the motor and trans to my buddy, he'll never use them but at least I'll know where there at when I want them back :wink: Maybe I can find a pic of it...

hell no! :lol:

we had cut off, raise, and reweld the ends of the trans crossmember to drop the trans about an inch, reshape the trans tunnel and restructure one of the floor braces. also had a new driveshaft made that's about a foot shorter.

Ok, so I send Scr8p my truck, my pride and joy, and I tell him to make it fast. Unfortunately, he made it half fast ... :mrgreen:
