It's going back together. Sent the tranny out, had it upgraded and installed a Vigilante 4000 stall triple disc converter.

Motor is in. The only issue is the Prothane trans mount.













I will have to modify the stock cross member or fab up a new one.


I have decided to do the ABS delete.
Also, this weekend, I picked up a N case 9" center section set with 4.56 gears.

Looks really nice, I want thouse shocks


check the motor mounts if you have the offset on the wrong side? The trans mount dossn't have any offset so I dout that can be the problem you have.

I went out to verify I installed correctly, Prothane inserts in stock casings,
assembled as per instuctions.

Looked at the stock tranny mount. The stud is offset toward the rear of the car that goes into the crossmember.

Made sure I had the correct mounts, engine, tranny and verified I put the motor mounts together correctly. Checks out.

So, I decided to modify my stock tranny crossmember to accept the Prothane tranny mount which does not fit well.

Here it is tacked and test fit. Goes on and off with ease.

Installed a SLP balancer which required a shorter belt to be used.


Installed the Afco rear coilover shocks, Midwest LCA and panhard bar. Next, saving for 9" from Midwest.


panhard bar


Preparing for ABS delete. Kit should arrive first part of next week.


Things left:
* Install KB boost-a-Pump
* Get PC680 battery
* Get 9"
* Install ABS delete
