ok this seems like way more than i wanted to get into. From my understanding the tranny is from a 54 chevy and i am going to put into a 54 chevy. I thought this may have been a direct switch with just the linkage, torque tube etc to change, but this seems like a lot more than i am willing to get into right now. It doesnt help that the drive train is in seattle and i am south fla. Shipping??? Thanks for all of the advise I'll keep the 3 on the tree.
