318 to 360 swap screwed up big please help!!!
what? The torque converter and tranny came together, from monster transmission, page 1. Never been in anything else, the transmission that came with the car is the one that blew, way back in december. The new transmission from monster has been GREAT, and has not, nor will it be seperated from the torque converter. The question posted at the begining of this post was before I knew that I was going to be able to afford to do things the right way and get the Balanced flex plate. I talked it over with my wife the same morning I started this thread and we decided to use a credit card. The B&M balanced flexplate was purchased the same day this thread was started. The a new pick up has already been installed, and the 360 center sump oil pan showed up today,. The Only thing left to question is the mounts, and I'm going to do another test fit tomorrow to see what if any modifications I'll need to make. From the last test fit, it looks like everythings gonna work just fine. As far as headers, yeah, that's the plan, but I was going to see if I could make the manifolds work first and wait till next pay day to do them. I thought I still had an old set of headmans in the barn, but my wife reminded me that they went along with a 318, stand and a set of schumaker s6 to 318 mounts that I sold a couple years ago.
As of now, I think I'm ok.
