Cool. I had hoped it would but was uncertain. I thought I read some others having to swap out for a different gas pedal but maybe that was to upgrade to a 2 or 4 barrel carb.
You will need to check the end of the crank to see if it's been machined for a stock pilot bushing. If not, use the later magnum pilot BEARING that will fit in the converter register. The difference on the flywheel will be the center hole diameter. Just get the '68-up flywheel for the newer engine.
Oh ok maybe that’s what I was seeing. Kind of on the fence on what to do. Between doing a 225 with a bigger carb or just rebuild the 170. It’s the original motor so didn’t want to slug a rod through it and maybe replace with a 225 for fun. The trans I have isn’t going to hit up to too much power. Thanks for all the help man.
Thanks for the info man. Trying to keep notes for when I get ready to get a motor to rebuild.
Thanks man. I’ll consider that option. Trying to track down a 225. My manual 3 speed prob won’t hold up to a lot of power but would be nice to have a 2 barrel carb at least. Sounds like if I do that I’ll need to grab the v8 throttle and plate and get that bolted up. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be.
That’s cool. I’m looking forward to getting it going but it’s going to be a while.
