@ rfs55trk....Thanks for the education on the overdrive, it's very much appreciated. This endeavor I'm on with the engine swap has been a big learning experience. I keep learning things as this progresses and my wallet keeps feeling it.....Laffinn. I was at one of the local yards today and they had a chunck that came out of a driving '55 Car with a 370 gear. If it will bolt in, I'm going to get it. Any thoughts on that?
@55shaker......I have picked up a couple of V8 ignition switches (minus keys that cost 18 bucks per switch) from my local salvage yards, hopefully one will work. I'm going to find out either today or tomorrow. If not, I can go back to the setup that's in it now, a push button under the dash. The stomp starter was taken out some time ago and replaced with a later starter. The bellhousing issue is hopefully resolved. I knew the bell needed changed over a year ago, so I got one (for a truck). I found out last week the pilot bearing hole and my bearing plate weren't the same dimension. Seems I bought a housing for 68 and up, I needed a 67 and prior and a different P/N. $75.00, plus 25 for blasting, later, I have the right bell.
