My "new" '74 Duster- or why I need a project like a hole in the head
Obviously that's not everything. But that's most of what I took pictures of. There was a reverse module from SilverSport transmissions that I wired up and connected to the speed sensor. The T56 has a spring in it with like a 60lb pressure to keep you from shifting into reverse when you mean to downshift into 5th (good idea right?). There's a module that overides that spring so you can shift easily which goes to the ECU on the newer applications. On a classic some places call for that to be wired to the brakes. Which kinda works, unless you're braking and downshifting at the same time. So I spent the money on the SilverSport module, which uses the VSS on the T56 to override the spring only when you're going less than 5mph. But wiring is boring, so, no pictures. Also I didn't need the VSS. That was one of the considerations buying the T56 Magnum vs using a viper or other T56. The Magnum has both a VSS output and a cable drive for a standard speedometer, so I could still use my 150 mph rallye speedo. :D
And then there's this. The final list. Everything I used along the way. No, not the cheapest way to do it, but that's what I did.
