I have installed a Borgeson box, and their coupler, on my 1966 Plymouth Belvedere along with a 5.7 Hemi. I have the exact same hissing sound that your video shows. Borgeson sent me a replacement box that also has the same sound. The pump has also been replaced. After coming across your...

So if I understood correctly you are using a 340 manifold on the driver's side and a magnum truck manifold on the passenger. Would the magnum work on the driver's side or what is the reason for going with the 340 since you are using the mini starter? Also is the passenger side truck manifold...

To Treblig---I never could have imagined when I ask the original question of "whether the floor linkage could be made to work with a 200r4" that it would turn into such a great thread. Thank you for a lot of us for making this so complete and detailed. I am at this point completely jealous...

If mine has the gap it is completly closed with what was probably dealer undercoating. Any progress?

Yes, keep the build as detailed as you have so far. I look forward to the pre-engineering without the 200r4 in the car. It will be interesting when the actual swap takes place.

The car is a 68 Dart convertible that is intended to be a street cruiser and possibly taken on a Power Tour in the future. For the 200r4 would the cable need to push or pull at the transmission itself?

Sorry, but my ignorance speaking. Can the interior gear shift be kept and the interior linkage be modified for the correct throw to use a cable setup to hook up to the 200r4? It seems that the length of the bellcrank in the interior could be modified to give the correct throw to the...

Don't stop with the detail on the install. This is exactly what I am looking for and it looks like you are making great progress.

Thanks for the reply. I will be looking forward to your progress and pictures. I am in the process of stripping the Dart of everything before media blasting and a re-paint. It currently has a lockup 998 transmission and a 2.76 rear end ratio for Interstate cruising, but I am looking for a...

I was wondering if anyone had used the 200r4 transmission in an A body that had retained the factory floor shift location and tunnel linkage. I have looked at Mopar to ya's installation and saw that he started with a column mount. My car is a 68 Dart convertible that currently is undergoing an...

I would like to know if their is any hood clearance issues from someone who has installed one of the Mopar Magnum Crate 360's with the included Mopar M1 single plane intake. The engine will be installed in a 1968 Dart GTS. Either an Edelbrock or Holley carb will be used. The engine part...

Iwent to look at the engine and the owner had paperwork saying it was part number P5007646 which was listed as a 395 HP version of the 360. I will probably buy it, but I am concerned about hood clearance with the M1 manifold. It will go in a 1968 GTS Dart. Edelbrock only lists their Air Gap...

Thanks for the input so far. I am still interested if someone knows how to ID the version. Would it have anything stamped on it somewhere?

I am going to look at a slightly used Mopar crate 360 with the single plane M1 intake. From looking at their history I see them listed at 380Hp and 390HP. Was their any difference or just a revised rating? The bigger question, is their an ID on the motor to positively identify which version...
