1958 chevy 3200 - 235 3 on the tree.
I drug the ol' truck home last March after not running for 15 years.
I replaced the rear main seal, carb, fuel pump, oil bath filter with a spin on, new roller bearings & power brakes.
Now that it runs & drives reliably, stops safely & I'm not worried about getting stuck somewhere.
I want to keep the 235 & bolt in an automatic trans. Since it is a 3 on the tree there are no holes in the floor for the shifter & I don't want any.
so the question is - what does it take to do a swap of this type?
I assume I will need a new steering column with the shifter. I may convert to power steering while I have it apart - but that is a different post.
I have never worked on a clutch or transmission - removal seems straight forward - but putting it back together correctly I'm worried about.
Is there a website that goes through this.
