Is it possible to go back to small block after this?

Anyone have a pair of the shumacher mounts?

Ideally looking for a bolt in, what would I need to modify to have these fit?

Swapping in a 440 and I need some spool V8 motor mounts, don't have the ability to take out the K member and do the DC conversion right now, so either I Frankenstein a couple spare mounts together with my welder... Or see if anyone has anything. Encinitas, CA 92024

Looking for a bell to go with the 130 tooth

Do you guys know anyone who's got a blow-proof bell housing for sale here? I'm swapping in a 383 to my car soon

Ha, I wish.... Where I live it's like $1,600 a year. My current setup seems to get around 22.5-23mpg hwy on a good day. I barely touch the pedal and I'm cruising at 70.

Thanks AJ, this will definitely give me some stuff to consider for my trans swap.

Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations. It's mostly a daily cruiser, but I've made it as light and torquey as I can. @AJ/FormS might have some input?

Anyone have experience with 2.76s or 2.94s behind a commando box? I'm looking for something a little more fuel sipping, but I don't wanna be burning the clutch when I'm just around town or in traffic. I do still wanna have plenty of fun with it. So if not that, then I may be going with an...
