you need to mount the shifter to something solid ... like the trans in the car and put a .010 blade in both sides .

Yes you can turn down the Od of the OD retainer to 4.80 so it will fit the 513 alum bell , that would probably be cheaper than buyer another retainer unless you get lucky and find one used . Good luck finding that bell for 200 or less , I hope you aren't in a hurry . Brewer has them as a repop...

Also make note the OD 3-4 rod is different than the non OD rod .

Truck trans has a different tailshaft than the A?F body trans he needs . what is your budget ? It will be cheaper to rebuild the 904.

You have to cut the tunnel to get one in , it doesn't fit thru the stock opening .

Jeff you need the A/F body linkage , truck is different . Also note you need the OD specific 3/4 rod , it is different than the non od rod. The truck shifter will work , reverse may be all the way out on the end of it's adjuster.

1978 I am pretty sure was the last year for the big block

I mean they are not casting numbers , those numbers are STAMPED .

You'll notice the floor has contours , the hump is contoured also , it's not to hard to figure out where it goes once you drop in on the fllor pan. do as the person that put the pictures above did , drop it on , trace it out , go an inch or so inside your tracing and that is what you cut out .

The first 2 rows of numbers you put up are not cast into the trans , the second row is the partial VIN from a 1968 car built at Hamtramack , in 68 they built B Bodies and A bodies. H4 C 87622 is a CASTING number and pretty much USELESS to figure out what the trans is because all 833 4 speeds...

What bellhousing are you using , truck or car ? There wasn't a BB truck bell that is stock for the 833 trans .

That's the bolt that locates the side cover . You'll want to check to make sure that the trans shifts innto reverse easily , if it doesn't go or goes hard loosen all the side cover bolts and tap the cover up then retighten .

If he is using the stock iron 372 bell he can just use the 340 trans as is as they had the 4.35 bearing retainer hole. An alternative is to use the 70 up 513 alum bell as it is almost an exact copy of the 372 bell. It has the bosses in the same place to mount the A body bracket but has the 4.8...

The Bell housing dictates what flywheel is needed , what is the part number of the bellhousing ? There are 2 flywheels , a 143 tooth and a 130 tooth . As far as the bearing retainer goes , you can buy one that fits the od input bearing size and will fit the bearing retainer size of the...

Are you sure you are not overextending the clutch, the lakewood makes it pretty hard to check because there is no inspection port except maybe thru the fork window ?

Neither of those shifters are OEM Chrysler shifters , the one with the Coors Light handle is closer though , the one with the funky reverse lever is I think for a Muncie . the reverse lever on a Mopar specific shifter sweeps rearward , A body and B body used the same shifter box , they are easy...

No way to know without opening it up at this point, post a picture showing the other side of the trans and not as close . Is it an alum case or cast iron? That ID pad should have been stamped and that will tell you what you need to know mostly , those numbers you put up are casting numbers and...

you're not even worth the effort , good luck ...

I'm not really sure what the factory used for a 4 speed in the 68 superstock A bodies but the trans would be a crash box. It's very easy to convert A B or B/E hemui trans to fit the A body , just swap the mainshft and the tailhousing froma NON OD A body 4 speed. Get the STAMPED numbers off...

I added it up and is south of 2700 , but not everyone needs to buy SFI parts. OEM flywheels are worth their weight in scrap I don't use them, I know what these cars cost to build, I have a Hemi and nothing associated with it is cheap. You are building an 800 hp hemi and you are bitching about...

Yes they are , that's too bad . Good luck in your search...

One thing I notice is you have the WRONG 3-4 shift rod for the OD trans , looks like you have the non od 4 speed rods , the 3-4 rod is shaped differently so it doesn't rub on the floor like it looks like yours is doing .

Have you seen the pictures of the Mc Leod , It has a shift rail setup simialr to a T5/TKO , no way it's a BOLT IN . I have an original 69 GTS 383 4 speed car , I'm not going to cut it up to install a 5 speed and I want to keep my 3.91 gears , actually looking to step up to 4.30 gears . I'm...

are you serious ? it's not going to cost you 2700 for pedals , floor hump , bellhousing , clutch and the z bar linkage , if it does I have a bridge for sale .... :wave:

Will the seller stand behind the trans and his CLAIM ? to me all used parts are CORES and priced as such.

I was just going to say this , if the trans is an alum case and tail it's an OD A body 4 speed .

It's a truck/van OD 833 , I think you should call him bleephead.

If there is a difference it isn't by much , the shifter box might be at a slightly different angle. Make sure the shifter is adjusted properly. Also remove the shift lever off the trans and make sure it shifts into gear like that , if it doesn't then there is a clash between parts inside the...

Specifically the 71-74 B body BENCH seat shifter .

The 4 digit code corresponds to a 10,000 day calender that started sometime in 1961 , there has been an excel spreadsheet program being circulated that is set up so you just plug in the number and it tells you the day .
