I've Been thinking about that.... in My 88 GMC... what Tranny Are you looking at Using...

Re: Cat 3116 build in 1972 IH Pickup
 

i will be using a Eaton Fuller 6610 tranny. just be forewarned it is a HEAVY engine. 1500 lbs dry. and it barley fits in the bay of my 72. if you have a 4x4 you will have to mod the oil pan. my model uses 8 gallons of oil.

Re: Cat 3116 build in 1972 IH Pickup
 

Do you have room behind the dash to cut the fire wall and move it back? It looks good sitting there. At least your truck is 2wd so you don't have any real clearance to worry about besides the ground. :lol:

Re: Cat 3116 build in 1972 IH Pickup
 

i am going to try and not cut into the firewall

Re: Cat 3116 build in 1972 IH Pickup
 

My travelall is begging me to git that tired ol 392 outta there and do something like this. I can hear it now coming down the road and sounding like a combine. :metal:
