THe Spicer one allows you to put in transmission ratios (O/D) if you like. If not, just use 1:1
I have not been sick for 3 or mor years, I am on my feet, and I believe because I never get headaches is why I am just feeling miserable, headaches as this head cold (or what ever this **** is) has me downing Tylenol 3 times a day, back and front of my left side of my head... started last Monday, 9 days now..
I think a hair cut could help.

I read yesterday where someone said "I was born visible but I identify as invisible. My pronouns are 'who/where'. " Made me chuckle
The morons have been loosed.

Minor surface rust. Chrome good. Tires need replacing due to age.
Evening gents
I have a course of action determined for the Valiant. I have located an unmolested, 1964, small block, pushbutton A904, complete with flex plate, kickdown linkage, and cables. The owner still has the 273 that it was mated to (1964 casting). The slanty is coming out...although I will hang onto it as it had a great deal of work done to it. It may find a new home in a future vehicle (Crazy me would like to get a U.S. built 64 Valiant to show the difference)... anyhow.. that's down the road A LOT.
Next steps after the Cannonball Run to get the transmission, is to start the teardown and rebuild of the 273. Thanks @lkopaska for pinging me on that other 904... I still plan to unscramble this poor one that I have on hand since there's so much blood, sweat, tears and $$ in it.
Initial direction with the 273 will be a stock build if the cylinders and other components are in good shape and don't require any touch-up.
Cheers

I like this plan!!
good plan on the 64
Whining helps... that and Bourbon.
Thanks Chris
Keep in mind that I know exactly squat about rebuilding engines... but @memike and @toolmanmike have good threads that I've read through.
I'd still like to know what is up with the MOPAR small block build book that was written by Don Taylor being so dang expensive?
Good to see you avoiding Anheiser Busch products there Fred!Dinner tonight is gonna be chicken and potatoes. Chicken will be dipped in a fine batter and deep fried to perfection. Potatoes will be sliced up and also fried with a tomato and vinegar dipping sauce.
A bit of gourmet dipping sauce for the chicken and a fine glass of world class A beer.
Leftovers from the bar at lunch but taste better if ya add a bit of class to it.
