Got some progress going on. Got the rear end in and assembled. Came out pretty good. Minimal swearing. Had the custom pilot bearing made. Clutch and pressure plate went in pretty smooth. Trans was a little tricky by myself on the floor. My body hates me, I need a hoist.. Need to run the parking...

There is. Didn’t tack them in yet in pictures

Got one spindle welded up. All looks good. Track width will come in about a 1/4 inch have to countersink the ball joint bolts. Just wanted to see what it looks like assembled first.

Hopefully . I’m going to to some R and D with them first. Take them on a drag week and drive them around Michigan. If they survive that then yes.

Spindle parts are in. Waiting on custom pilot bearing then trans will be going in.

No, it’s already longer than the A arm. Better to have a bigger swing. Helps with the arch

Been putting the front suspension on. Hdk kit is very nice. I had stock strut bars in it with the factory rubber so I made a front adjustable arm. Initially I had someone spin up the rear mount and made an arm to the front with rod ends and clevis style mount in the front. After the install I...

Thanks. I’ll keep them coming. I haven’t found a stepped pilot for this application. I’ll be running a 255/60 drag radial with 4:30 gear

Got some good news I guess for the bellhousing. We are going to use it. I’ll have to make a custom pilot bushing that’s a little longer. After measuring everything out the clutch disk will ride right at the very end of the spline of the input shaft. Won’t be running a spacer in between crank and...

Crank on the gen 3 only sticks out .500 from block not like the old school stuff

Ford version. Well that would explain the shortness. Story of my life eh lol. They advertise it as small block/ gen 3 tko/tkx when they really shouldn’t

I know right.. it’s a Ram clutches flywheel. I can fix the pilot. It’s already to two piece design. Remake the brass and make it longer. I have an old flex plate that’s .110 that I’m going to make a spacer out of. It’s half of what I need but it should make the clutch 100% on the spline and not...

Having some issues with the QuickTime bell housing… the advertised depth of this bell is 7.300. This bell is sb/ gen 3 driver side starter.. I referenced quicktimes specific gen3 tko/tkx with passenger side starter and it’s the same 7.300 depth.. All my engagements are on the ragged edge. Pilot...

Yes thanks. 15x4. What hub and rotor where you planning on running

Things kinda escalated on the front suspension. Ended up modeling a 2” drop spindle. Soon we will have a real part. Hemi Denny torsion bar eliminator kit ( nice stuff!) to accompany the spindles

Trans crossmember is complete. Very beefy. Started to make a tunnel patch also.

Never mind. I forget there’s directions for this kinda stuff .. lol they even circled it for me!

Push rod is installed and it’s not totally going in a straight shot. It has a little miss alignment where silver sport has their hole. Now if I move it up to the stud it’s very straight.. The hole that is provided is giving me a 3.5:1 pedal ratio.. if I move it up to where it’s happy it’s 6:1...

Craaapp I may make a corking tool and use the aluminum part as a guide. Thanks for the picture

Has anybody had to pop a hole in their strut tower of master cylinder clearance?? I don’t want to cut another hole in my car! Feel like captain jack sparrow, quit blowing holes in my ship!!

That’s where it’s going to sit. No speedo, my cluster makes a chatter noise so I’m taking it out.

I had a chance to model up a trans crossmember. Took a photo of underneath the car and scaled it into fusion 360. Initial model came out well after 3d printing the bracket. A few tweaks and some gussets and we will have a crossmember

Bolted right up. Holley sells right flexplate. I made my own motor mounts. Used tti measurements to mount engine

Probably not, the old 904 was in the stock location and I just bolted the hemi to it. Crank centerline may be higher but the transmission mount stayed the same. Engine is sitting at about 2.5 down.

Got the trans up in there. I’m kinda pissed I had to cut so much but it is what it is.. Lots of test fitting and wondering haha. Have to make sure the angle of the engine stays the same with headers on it ect.. tail shaft is closer than I like to the tunnel. Have to test fit old drive shaft. I...

I’m hoping the run out will check out I don’t want to take those damn dowels out again.. I figured the starter support won’t hurt. It looked fine spinning it with the plugs out but with almost 12:1 compression it’s a different story.

got everything in place. Ready to dial it in. Had to put longer dowels in. Welded in a starter snout support also. Drilled and tapped the top starter hole 1/2-20 kinda like factory. Also got a real fuel pump! Ordered up Hemi Denny torsion bar eliminator also

Fixed

I’ll be putting fly wheel in and bumping the motor over before to verify. I have Ram clutch and pressure plate and fly wheel. Liberty gears helped me out with all of it

Okay. So I’ve decided to keep with the QuickTime bell housing.. First was the starter issue. I have a Dakota starter and it was working perfectly with the 904. I did have to grind the block which was fine. Now because of the larger diameter ring for flywheel I believe they moved the starter down...
