HI all, By way of introduction I'm from the Kansas City area and have been working on old cars for over 30 years and have done everything from Model A's to Sting Rays to Tri Five chevys. I've posted on the Ford Barn side for a while but thought I'd come over here to the "dark side" for help on a more or less traditional rod. I just finished a restoration of a '29 Model A 4 dr. town sedan to original condition earlier this year and am now starting on a '31 A roadster that I want to make into a banger rod similar to my avatar. My plan is for the original engine with high comp head, cam, header, down draft carb etc. I want to use a syncro top loader three speed from the late 30's to make the car easier to drive and enjoy. My problem is that I have no info on how to make that trans swap and would appreciate some info from those that have done that on what I'm faced with as far as what trans to use, what adapters and parts will be needed , how difficult the swap is and anything else that might help. Are there any publications with a step by step procedure that I can follow? I'd sure appreciate any help offered! Thanks Bob
