Re: whats involeved in puttin a th350 trans into my 3sp truck..

I did this in my 67' and im here to tell you it's a boltin , but not an easy one .
You will need flywheel with bolts , torque converter , trans lineand cooler , steering column , drive shaft shortened and new yoke , shifter linkage , auto cross member , linkage to the 6 (if it's a 6) . and a starter . The starter is what cuase my 6/auto swap to fail . Couldn't find the correct 250/th350 starter so i put a 350 in it . Might be easier if it's a V-8 .

I have done this about a dozen times. Some work, but worth the time. Cutting the old std trans.crossmember out is the part i hate the most. Hope this helps.

No need for the whole starter. You can just swap the starter nosecone in a few minutes.

What nose cone is this for future reference ? I started 2 threads on this and never got an answer . I put a 168 tooth flywheel on it .
