Ok here are some more, only reason this has been on hold was because I wanted to get the Lincoln on the road before bringing it home and having another dead car in the garage.

The trans is using the tail housing from a c6 corvette trans I had laying around. Since the trans no longer has a spot in the rear for a shifter I managed to adapt a cobra mustang shifter and put it in the “forward location.” Had to cut off the extra shift rail, then installed a McLeod lug for the shifter to engage. It all works great and smooth through the gears.

I still don’t remember how I found it, but I found a guy that makes the black steel adapter to go from a corvette trans to a 4wd transfer case for the full-size truck guys. Well being the np149 came in a couple years of the Escalade and the Silverado SS it’s a full-size transfer case bolt pattern.

It’s been months since I did all of this so trying to remember stuff.
Oh the oil pan is a 4wd swap pan I wasn’t fond of because I like my cast aluminum pans but you do what you gotta do. And I had to hammer it for diff clearance because I wanted my motor low and not use any kind of body lift. No one makes 4wd s10 LS swap mounts to put the engine where I wanted so I modified 2wd summit mounts till it sat where I wanted.
