Help- Transmission yanking & Crossmember issues 3spd manual to th350 swap

[Jeff-n-Red]

Help- I gotta bike to work in AZ heat until i get this swap done. I just spent 2 days enjoying the AC I just installed, but now- uh oh . stuck in teh middle of a tranny swap

2 different Qs here:

swapping my old 3 speed manual to a 350 turbo auto (I have a small block 350, 68 long bed),

trouble yanking old tranny, after i got it about an inch off. I assume I have to chop off the crossmember (since it's not on with removable bolts) so that the clutch can clear it also. ? (i orignally thought i could tip tranny over the crossmember and out - but maybe that's what's hitting now.

With my tranny jack under there, it's hard to access/see everything .

Q 1: ANy tips on yanking it out? Gotta remove crossmember right?


Q2: Trying to find what crossmember I need for the 350turbo tranny

Thanks!
