Re: Transmission Swap

It would be easy to fab an extended handle to fit on the S-10 shifter to put the knob up where you want it.

If you go the SM 420 don't over pay for it and be aware that you may have to rebuild it. If your three on the tree trans is in good shape and doesn't jump out of gear it may be real good trading material to someone with a stock closed drive truck.

48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
