Make sure you insulate the master and lines from the header. The heat will expand the brake fluid and cause a hard pedal or brake drag. Or worse, loss of brakes.

Ok, I never heard about the tail shaft difference. Does it bind when you combine parts? What breaks?

We got a little. South of me got over a foot.

Yes That is the supposed Motor home one. The 1976 one is from a C body I was told.

Found the 402 number in the list 76/77 400 non hp. Don’t see the other number.

Here are the numbers on both transmissions.

The MH trans has a regular tail shaft. No brake drum. Both look the same except the MH has ribs on the housing.

Don’t know the years of the trans. The engine came separately and is a 68

Transmission gurus, I have a Big block transmission from a motor home and one from a C body. I see on the MH one there are ribs on the tail shaft for strength, C body smooth. Are there any internal component strength difference between the two? I want to build one and sell the other with a 68...

I did the trial and error on ours with some smaller used tires I have. It has new 235/60r14 in the front and they don't rub. I like the wide foot print look. I bought new 225/70r14 and did rub on turns so now I'm stuck with a pair of those. 255/60r15 on the back. I will be changing to 275/60...

I ordered my small block heads on Black Friday and got them yesterday. A buddy did the same and got them yesterday too. They look really nice so far. Going to remove the valves and inspect soon.
