Has anybody done this installation and can tell me what's in store for me? The main thing that I'm concerned about is the transmission mounting position... will it line up or am I going to have to move it forward or back, or get a after market mount. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | What transmission are you replacing?
I suspect the answer is that you need an aftermarket transmission mount, or perhaps will have to make one. '60, '61 and '62 are different that what was before or after, and I'm not sure of the details on one of those.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 2,098 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 2,098 | Early 283's did not have provisions to mount the starter to the block so you will want to check that out. There is an aftermarket spacer plate available from various suppliers that can be used with late model transmissions.
