Do a FA engine and find a original 4-speed column or a 3-on the tree. The original motor would have been a HA with Torboglide http://www.348-409.com/suffix.htmlIf i keep it I want to build it to retain its value.
Other than finding a 1961 348 3x2 what type of trans should I use?
Would I lesser its value drastically if I swapped it to a floor shift ? What about a disc brake conversion ?
If you want the trany to be original would be BW T-10 iron case aluminum tailshaft.What are my options for 4 speed transmissions.
I've built a resto-mod 1963 impala already, but i have never done a original build.
Thanks for all the help.
Yes...dates on the main case, side cover and tailshaft housing.are the BW transmission date coded ?
Nice Bubble top! my 62 Bubble was also made there too
Why worry about a date coded 4-speed, when the car didn't come with one ?
I'd go with a better trans, if it were me.
Who's going to crawl under the car ?
Just sayin....
Great News...Good News,
Wife said build it.
Started gathering parts.
