I have another shaft to press a usable pin out of. I would do a conversion be it invoves two trips thru Houston and 6 hours...

    ball and trunnion 1964 Belvedere poly 318

    Like said, I have 2 other trunnion shafts the correct length. I will try to get the shaft on out today/ I did advertise the car for sale in parts cars!! Too nice for such but the buyer can part it or have a cool driver.' If I end up keeping it I may very well just do the conversion joint.

    ball and trunnion 1964 Belvedere poly 318

    installing bolt in shifter handle in push in box

    It is an A/B box and I don't think it is hardly one year. But I understand the idea!!!!!

    installing bolt in shifter handle in push in box

    I have done 4 speed cars for decades but getting the right box and handle was easy. Now stupid $ for everything. I can see why I can't drill and use the push in box. It shorten the handle by what 1 1/2 inches maybe. Glad it worked for you!!!!!

    I know there is an adaptor, but why can't it just be ground to fit in and drilled and bolted in??

    1964 B body 4 speed transmission bracket

    I think making the auto bracket into the 4 speed bracket is same process as the 66 up ones.

    1964 B body 4 speed transmission bracket

    I have changed over the Auto to 4 speed trans bracket on lots of 68-70 B bodies, but the last time I dealt with this was back in the 90s on an early B car. Can't remember what I did for it to work. What I have is a slant 3 on tree car going to a BB and 4 speed (69). I have the aftermarket...

    At my wits end: Need help with driveline vibration

    Way back decades (90s) ago I bought a nice 68 GTX 440 4 back home in Ga. and headed back to Mo. I stopped off at a friend to see some parts he wanted it I sold it to him. He was into drag racing. He gets it out on the interstate late night and opens it up. It ran great till he got it up...

    location for 4 sped hump- 64 Savoy

    I would do that IF I had the eng. I have the trans, no bell. IF no o e buys this project I will finish it and keep it for my last build. Welding in the hump helps eliminate the buyers that want it as an auto. car maybe!!

    location for 4 sped hump- 64 Savoy

    Can someone give me measurements to properly locate the hump, reference to the firewall and to the side at say the sill?? Thanks!! I had to fab the floor (has original tunnel) and the repop hump is not that great.
