ya .. but i kinda wanted to run the poly just because no one else dose ....
i really wanted to...
i have to say i messed up and forgot all about the lights ... text me your addy again and il get it out to ya ... 20 things going at the same time .. please accept my apology for the delay...
not many anyway. i seen a 60's wagon that someone had put the 2x4 poly in... can't remember where.
Ok . final plan is on paper... all parts will be in one spot this week. we are going with the 413 long ram and C body HP manifolds will make the spent gases go away. the PB 727 with the trunion front joint. newer K frame with the late mounts and stock big spring trans mount. won't have to make anything and the stock drive line will bolt in it. the pass side fender skirt will be delt with but with the 1 in spacer to use the newer afb's should make it less work. as for the booster. if the stock one don't work im thinking a thin N body or mid 70's pick-up booster should make things fit. as for the dual quad poly and 4 speed....... on the back porch for now. it mite find its way along with the 62 poly K frame into the TX crew cab since it is set up for a stick and would make a cool old cop car clone so that means il need to find some floors for the wagon....lol but just incase the 413 is in a bad way i have took the procaution of getting a flex plate and top end gasgets so i can use the 440 and bolt any trans to it if i have too. thinking back. this should have been the plan right off the bat. i only got 6 months left ....lol. if anyone has some input on this .. im all earsim kinda good at this stuff. but not above asking questions.
can't wait ..... but if ya notice its not the long ram.. it is the shorter one without the full lenth devided runners
