1964 Dart Grüne Hölle Road Course/Track Day/AutoX Project
3/27/21:
I got the Engine and trans pulled, Bolted motor mounts to a mock up block, Looked at some oil Pan options and made some lines on sheet metal for surgery.
Stock, Smoky 1 Bbl engine is out.
[
Transmission is out
Transmission will get replaced with a Brand New Ford Motorsport Z spec T5 which has close ratios - especially between 1st and 2nd gear.
I have a Few Different oil Pans to choose from on this project: (lots of 67-76 A body ones, one 60-66 A Body, One F body and one 60-62 B Body Pan)
60-62 Belvedere/Fury/SavoyPhoenix/Polara Pan as compared to F Body Pan.
Only crazy Slant 6 Folks keep a Broken, Old Race Block around for Mock up purposes as No one makes one of those plastic mock up blocks in a slant 6 :D
B Body Pan on the Mock up ready to Drop in.
Cut Lines added:
Lots of Cutting, Welding, Grinding, and Fitting this week!
