Flathead 5 speed

Does anyone make an adapter to use the world cl*** 5 speeds that you would find in a 94 and later s-10. I have one of these ******s laying around that I would like to put it behind the flathead in my 50.

 

do a search,

topic has been covered heaps of times.

I think cornhusker does a kit for that box.

but use the search, it is your friend.

 

I know that cornhuskers kit is for the 93 and earlier ****** because I thought that I was gonna be lucky enough to use that ****** behind my 35 flathead that I am putting in my 35. I have decided to keep the 50 and I want to be able to jump in it and go because right now I am limited to about how far I can go because I am not a big fan of cruising around at 50mph and getting 10 miles a gallon these days can get expensive.

 

Got mine at Speedway, Offy makes em

The company that makes an adaptor for your trans is I think called Shadow Rods out of Michigan.

 

Make your own for about a hundred bucks. Dirrections are in "Member articles", on Fordbarn.

 

Run in part by Mark Kirby....Motor City Flatheads. They'll know . I used the Offy adaptor. Works like a champ.

 

Flat-O products makes one too, he's a knowledgeable guy running a little one man show.

 

Cornhuskers kit is made for the GM pattern S-10 trans 85-92 and Shadow Rods is for a Ford pattern as I believe the later 93 up S-10 trans have. I could be mistaken.
