nope, they were sitting under the 350 that i pulled to put in the 63 gmc.
i found my correct perches in a 1965 chevy with a 327 and 5 speed conversion. they were definately different than the ones from the 1972.
the donor truck was 1972 chevy lwb 350/ turbo 400 trans 12 bolt 3.08 richmond gears power steering disk power disk brakes.
so far i've already installed the rear end and the motor, but i kept my 4 speed trans. just upgraded to sm465 from the original sm420. rewired for hei and 3 wire alternator. added twin relay system for the headlights and added driving lights also.
i hope to be able to install the front suspension soon. i need better braking and the power steering won't hurt either.
