Manual 465 to 90v20 Burb q's

[kwmech]

Pretty sure the square body still had mechanical linkage in 90. Find a truck with all the goodies under the dash and install.
what's going to happen to the existing transmission and t-case?

I have that bracket. Let me find it and I can get some measurements for you. I don't think it would be hard to make from scratch.

I appreciate it.




I have
465/205 early style
Pedal Assembly and Z bar linkage from pedal
a 78 k20 frame with a bracket and linkage
Early Flat trans crossmember and t case skid

He is offering up a 74 K20 350/465/205,with a Dana 44/14bff that runs and drives as a payment with current reg.

I misunderstood, I thought you were missing the bracket. When you said it's going to be the worst part of the swap, you meant locating the bracket on the new frame?

85 is first year of the hydro clutch.

I have a bracket. I meant getting the bracket on. Would one have to lift the body off the frame a bit to drill the mounting holes?

Well my bud decided to stick with the manual setup. Potentially down the road, he is considering the Novak hydro retrofit.

He dropped it off a few days ago and since the weather is shot and we are still amassing parts. I most likely won't start for a few more weeks. This will give me the time to get some needed parts ready.

So, what I have.
465/205 10 spline input, twin stick rails, 30 spline front output.
Pedal assembly with z bar and brackets.

What I need to get for the swap
465/205 bolt in floor hump(optional & needs to be cut out)$80
Clutch kit #04-902
Flywheel for the newer crankshaft #lwf201
Starter. #Ns3838
Vss conversion for the 205 output. Behemouth Drivetrain $300


Driveshafts. $800-1000

Now there has been some discussion on weather or not he wants me to just leave the column in park and not wire in a clutch start switch.

He wants to just leave it, but he has little boys... I think I am just going to wire in the pedal switch. I would hate to hear about it later and someone got hurt.

Pretty nice looking truck, I actually had the opportunity to get this burb before my bud got it. It was for sale for $400 with no moving gears. He put a vacuum modulator on it and got forward gears only.

And boom... Just like that. Everything is on hold until I find out if the headers will work with the mechanical linkage.
Dang it.
I think they are thorely tri's.

I think the first yr for Hydro clutch for 83-84. I used a dually one as a donor for another swap. It was easier without the linkage.

The trans has no reverse. Not sure.
