I sure hope I'm not jinxing myself here.....but I think I've got the entire 5 speed set-up in the Chevelle sold lock, stock & barrel.
If this pans out the car will be temporarily converted over to a 400 Turbo for track testing purposes.
Once that's done, the 496 is coming out of the car and a mild engine will be going back in along with a Muncie 4 speed and appropriate peripherals.
Hard lesson learned here: making a heavy stick car haul ass is WAY above my pay grade.
Maybe once the car has a slushbox in it the "fire" will re-kindle between me & the car.
We'll see. I hope.
