Converting from 318 to 326.. Need shifter rods
Yep, I have a SM318 that is popping out of 3 gear under load.. I also have a 326 Muncie from a '69 Chevy truck that was behind a 350.. Got the trans and driveshaft w/yoke from the guy who said it was working great, just wanted a 4 speed. What I need is the rods that will connect it to the column. I know you fellas convert these to floor shift or remove them to put in better 4 speed transmissions but I just want to leave mine on the column.. Anybody have some rods and hardware they want to donate to my project? I'll certainly pay the S&H to Charlotte NC 28216..

I am doing the same conversion on my 62. My understanding is that the 1st-Reverse rod needs to be lengthened by about 3-1/4".

There is a 71 or 72 three on the tree in the LKQ in Clayton NC 2928 US70 E. It still had the shifter rods and trans last time I was there.
