I put a Tremec in my 55. It will bolt up to an old school bellhousing. A Tremec is "conservatively" rated at 600 ft/lbs too.
Wow. It's kind of a bummer that people have gone to the BJ and the only thing they took away from it was the rich douches driving prices up. I'm...
How's this?
As others have stated, yes- the radiator support is different for a v8 and the inline 6. The inline 6 radiator support has the radiator mounted...
I went through the same thing- I ended up buying shock extensions. The extensions were on clearance, maybe $4.00 at Checker/Autozone or someplace...

I posted the same question a while ago. No replies. :( If you happen to find out anything, please post it!
$450 is just silly. I'm not a SW tach historian, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Ok.. maybe I didn't stay at a Holiday...
This is awesome... I'd love to make a H.A.M.B function be the first place I take my 55 chevy. I hope I can get it rolling in a week or two.
Really?
Assuming I can get my new wiring harness installed and get my new engine fired up, I might run up there in my car. I won't be making any runs but...
Jim, It looks good, but when are we going to see some pics of that Willy's you've been working on? :D That is you that's been posting blue...
