Nice bout tyme u get some stuff done
bout time! looks good! pm the place doing your powder work. I'm lookin for a deal
Nice congrats
Slight problem tonight. I tried to install the transmission without success. The trans is about 1/2" away from the bellhousing. It will not go any further. We did replace the pilot bearing. I think thats where the problem is, but why?? I looked up the 4 cyl. pilot bearing, and it looks nothing like the 5.0 one. I don't think thats the problem. Ideas?

Venom, I've had this problem before as well. Have your wife or a friend sit int he car and as you work the transmission in have them push the clutch in slowly and the tranny will pop right in. I also had to do this on my 70 Charger R/T eventhough I alligned the clutch with the tool. If you're within a 1/2 inch or inch it will work, try it.

vital will get it in 4 ya :)
Can use the bell bolts to draw in the tranny. Not a great way to do it, but I have to admit I've done it without a problem in the past.

Brainfart this morning. I lost one of the alignment pins on the bellhousing, but we just put it back together like that. I'm wondering if the bell is just a little bit off...

Thanks guys. I pulled the bell, put a new dowel pin in, and slid the trans in...still no worky.
Had my gf push the clutch in and BOOM....perfect fit.

Hey Tim, just wanted to chime in and tell you that the car looks good. Did you make any changes to the engine or are you going to run the same setup?
