Got the tranny rebuilt for project old school, a saginaw 4-speed with new hurst linkage from summit racing... I thought I would break away from the th350 norm and row my own gear's.... Quickie rebuild on a 350 here after x-mas... Also I picked up these slotted mag's (3 of em ) from a guy who owed some ducket's to me..... 15X8.5...

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 12-18-2003, 09:43 PM

New hurst linkage...

shuttermutt · 12-18-2003, 10:29 PM

Sweeeeet! My Chevelle was set up with a mild 350, Muncie M-21/Hurst, 3.73 gears, and a set of turbine wheels for a few years. No doubt about it, that combo was a BLAST!

Love them wheels, man!

What are duckets? I'm tryin to figure out if you got a good deal or not...

And you are going to run a white Hurst shifter knob on it aren't you?

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 12-18-2003, 11:12 PM

Ducket's is money... Yes white knob for sure what else is there .

jorgensensc · 12-18-2003, 11:13 PM

I love those wheels!!! Every since Dazed and Confused I've wanted those on my truck!!!

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 12-18-2003, 11:15 PM

jcueckert13 · 12-19-2003, 12:25 AM

dazed and confused is a great movie and up untill reading this post i had completly forgotten about that truck.

jhwkns · 12-19-2003, 12:32 AM

That's the same tranny/linkage that I have in my '69 with 3.73 gears, and it's a blast to drive. If your transmission is new you should try some Redline synthetic gear oil. It made mine shift much smoother. I rebuilt mine recently. I ran it for about 1k miles on standard gear oil to break it in, and then replaced it with the Redline. There was a noticible difference.

Your truck is going to be real similar to mine when you're done... hmm... never thought of myself as old school
