"GRASSHOPPER!". . Remember start at the back and build forward start looking for a Dana 60 out of a truck or something like that. Looking for a machine shop that will cut down the rear end and put normal car ends on it so you can put your brakes and stuff on it. Also picking out your gears and your differential. If you get all that put in what's the new Driveline to your current setup it may change things as well with some nice gearing. Then after you enjoy that new gearing for a minute you can go ahead and pull the motor and transmission. While the motor is at the machine shop you can rebuild the transmission yourself which is easier than falling out of bed... $125 for a rebuild kit and $75 or less for a transgo shift kit.. I've installed the trans go two a couple of times and they make the transmission to shift perfect. Not harsh and banging just quick and snappy like you want it... no I'm running out of $0.02 and going to have to charge you $0.25 LOL...
