    On the Stude 3 spd you can adapt a Stude pu shifter by removing the top inspection cover, bending the shift forks slightly, and bolting it to the top. This centers the shifter and moves it forward.
    My brother Tom (Gennie Shifter) did this in his 53 Comander with a 57 Golden Hawk 289 back in 1960.

    If you can't find a Stude pickup floor shifter a Jeep T96 floor shifter will work with the same massage. Is that tranny a BW T86? Im putting one with OD & a Jeep shifter in my roadster. BW Overdrives are fun to drive.

    Anyone have info on cam sprocket bolts for a 56 365? Pretty sure the spec on them is 5/16-18 x 3/4 hex head but id just like to double check. Thanks!

  9. Think Root is correct... I bought a set from ARP and used two of them when I put my 390 together.
