Hello, I'm a new member from Connecticut. I have a 1968 Road Runner that I have owned since 1987, my first car. I've sent her out for a total resto, body/paint, etc. She is the standard "run of the mill" 383, auto on the column, electric blue hardtop with the decor package. Back in '87 I wanted the 4 speed but could not find one that wasn't destroyed or overpriced. The car has been totally stripped down to bare steel, metal work is done and is sitting in a nice coat of primer. Once the paint/body is done, it will be time to put the mechanics together. I am toying with the idea of making her a standard but am torn between the 5 speed conversions or the A833 4 speed. I am leaning for the A833 but where can I find the "whole package" of things I will need. I really don't want to go to car shows and buy it piece by piece but if I buy things I want them to fit properly. I am talking everything down to the correct shifter (bench seat) to the linkage, pedals, clutch, flywheel....you guys get the point. Any ideas? I see that Stephens and Brewer's offer complete kits....any good? Some of the parts are repro and don't know if they fit/work properly. Any ideas/input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot
