Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
Well if weather permits I am having my PTC transmission and convertor installed. I have decided against putting it in myself. Which makes me kinda nervous lol. I am a perfectionist. Taking it over to one of my hot rod buddies shops down in Severville TN.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
Does your truck have a 3 or 4 speed auto now? I can't seem to get my column to go all the way down into first gear after my 4 speed swap.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
3 speed. Is it binding at the column or the shift rod? From my understanding I could be wrong. Is you need a longer shift rod. Lmao. Idk have not messed with the four speed in these trucks.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
Once you get yours in let me know. I put in the lokar linkage but I just don't think the shifter goes down that far on the column. Just need to mess with it more I guess.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
Hell I forgot to post I scratched the 4 speed idea and went with a race ready TH350 from PTC. Now if I remember correctly a old timer told me you will have to notch the column so it will do down into 4th gear or buy a column from a 4 speed truck.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
Sounds good, what mufflers are you running? Sounds like you may also be running an XPipe? What size exhaust?

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
Smart man. Yes I am running a X pipe. Borla XS mufflers. But just bought some Borla XR1 mufflers. It is a 3" from collector back. And thank you I like how it sounds myself.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
Forgot I want to apologize for the mess in the garage getting new wood looking tile laid downstairs for the wife. So that is why my garage is a mess.
