G-series tranny swap

[Ghost]

a guy just emailed me these pics.

i know thats the flywheel i and i think thats the shift fork in this pic? do i need anything else relative to these parts that i might be missing?



and this is the shift linkage? is there a piece that this connects too that i need as well? or does this connect directly to the internals of the tranny?

yeah man. its in and i put maybe 100 miles on it so far. im keeping my skinny tires on until i get my g-series though. i have the old one to bring down to you then.

the subframe bolts ripped out of the crossbeam in the front so i parked it until i can get that fixed.

that sucks the big one!! easy fix though if you have a drill and can get some angle iron. there's a thread about it in here somewhere.

so what did you think of it

well seeing that the lower rad support was replaced by box tube from the PO, i think that'll hold up till the rest of the car falls apart around it. i WOULD though consider using windshield adhesive to fill in the front trans mount to limit engine rocking. and once you get the header fixed, wrap it and the downpipe for better spool.

i'll be hunting for a BP tomorrow at lutrels salvage w/ some friends from my shop.

i looked the whole yard over and couldnt find a bp. i found one excort gt but it was stripped. good luck.

wouldnt filling the mount put more stress on this tranny?


what did you think of your ride?:p
