Re: 4500 mockup begins-eng location ?
Its a 69. The cab is off a C10, but I have to swap in the high hump from the 69 k10 I started with.
I'm keeping the juice clutch, but will be using the AA bellhousing with the D/S output when I get to final assembly.
I knew the 4500 was longer than the 465 and would put the shifter up against the seat. I'm running a s/b with electric fans so I should have plenty of clearance under the hood.
I checked the clearance between the clutch fork on the P/S bell and the Dana 60 pumpkin. It looks ok without any weight on it, but looks like it will hit the front shaft if it compresses more than about 4-5 inches. Better safe than sorry. You can see what I mean in this photo from behind.
