A 4L60 sounds great, Jerry.
So, from what I’m reading, if I do this, I’m going to have to weld in front side mounting pads for the car style engine mounts, remove the rear crossmember, and install a new crossmember at the rear of the transmission. Welding on my frame is where I’m going to draw the line, so it appears that this whole idea is for naught.
If powerglides were offered as an option on ‘50 trucks, how did they deal with the truck engine mount setup- you’ve either got to have one mount in front and two in the rear, or two in the front and one in the rear….. did the factory modify the truck frame for car style front mounts and creat a different rear crossmember??
Sounds like I need to stick with my T5…!
