    [FOR SALE] 225 Super Six block + Manifold

    Hi all, I have a 225 super slant 6 block and manifold. We bought a spare engine a few years ago and decided to use that instead of rebuilding this one. We simply don't have the time to do what we'd like to do with it. Initially pulled for bad head gasket. Came out of a 78 volare. Pickup only...

    [WANTED] Hurst Shifter Lever (Possibly 7036?)

    I messaged him along with a bunch of other 4 speed guys, nobody knows what the stick is from. I've searched everywhere. I've decided to just keep it for now and deal with it. It works great in my truck.

    [WANTED] A230 3 speed

    I'm in Oconomowoc. About 30ish mins from Milwaukee. EDIT: I should add that the shift lever isn't from an A body, sorry if it sounded like it was. It's a NOS unit from a mustang I believe, but it fit well in my application which is made from almost all Abody parts. The mech is a synchro loc 3...

    [WANTED] A230 3 speed

    I have an A230 that was rebuilt about 1000 miles ago. I ended up pulling it and replacing it with an A833. I also have a NOS Hurst comp shifter mech+lever in excellent condition to match. It's a B/E Body unit, you can make it work with A body linkage (that's what I did). I still have the linkage...

    [WANTED] Hurst Shifter Lever (Possibly 7036?)

    Hey all, I have a shifter that I'm not sure what it's out of. There are no numbers on it. After research, I THINK it could be a 7036, but I have no way to be sure. This used to be a bayonet type shifter but I drilled it to fit a bolt-in application. I've attached a picture of the shifter I...

    [WANTED] 71-74 A-body shifter Lever non-console

    Yes, they're currently out of stock. I've also checked Ebay, but they're very expensive there. Hoping to find some potentially cheaper options here.

    [WANTED] Roller cam for magnum

    FWIW I haven't had any problems with my adapter. I'd have to pull out my receipts to check, but I think the adapter I bought was the one from Hughes. I haven't had any issues with it yet. Many spins to 6400RPM at 400hp+. about 1.5k miles on it so far...but I don't have a fuel pump eccentric either.

    [WANTED] Roller cam for magnum

    You can use a LA cam in a magnum, just use the extension piece. Aftermarket cams for the magnums are pretty scarce. This is coming from my experience on a 318 though, not a 360.

    How much friction modifier?

    I just used one tube on my 9.25.

    a833 Noise on Decel

    Hi all, back again with some transmission woes. Got my 4-speed reinstalled and now it has a different problem. In 1st, 2nd, and 3rd there is a very loud noise on deceleration. The noise immediately stops if I put the clutch pedal down or hit the gas (even if just a little bit). The noise is...

    Does AC rob power while not in use?

    Hey all, I have a general question with AC. That is, does the AC system draw power even when not engaged? I know it draws power when it's turned on, but I'm wondering if simply having the pulley drag on the engine would cause more than a 1-2hp loss. I'm considering adding AC to my Dakota but...

    Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

    Update to the thread: I just called Brewers and they said it's definitely a 64/65 A body shifter and that the factory shifters did not have any bushings -- just washers.

    1987 Dodge Dakota 5.9 swap with a NV3500

    @Magnum87 , reviving this semi-dated thread, if you need some parts, I might have what you need. I have a 94 Dakota Sport that I changed almost everything on and kept almost all the stock parts (tranny, rear end, wiring harness, computer, etc.). If you end up needing any of these parts, let me...

    A230 stuck in reverse

    I had this same problem on my A230. I ended up rebuilding the whole thing for another reason, but it hasn't happened since. AJ is FAR more knowledgeable than I am, but I will 2x his statement on over shifting. I installed shifter stops to make sure it didn't happen again. The A230 is an awesome...

    Scatter shield vs bellhousing

    I have a cast flywheel and regular bell on my truck. Truck probably makes 450 and sees 6600 rpm, not really worried about it. I figure 99% of the explosions are happening on cars with much more horsepower on much harsher conditions. I like to joyride my truck for sure, but I don't think that's...

    A833 Noise in Third

    If this is the problem (I know nobody knows for sure until it's taken apart), would it damage the transmission if I drove it 3 or 4 hours on the highway this way?

    A833 Noise in Third

    Hey everyone, another transmission question. I bought a rebuilt a833. All the forward gears shift fine and go in without any issue, and the car drives fine. However, third gear makes a lot more noise than any of the other gears. First and second are quiet, no noise at all. Third makes a ton...

    Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

    That's indeed what I have. So I guess I'll install it as is with no bushings or washers or anything. I'm surprised that the circles in the shifter arms are still so round for their age. The shift rods are pretty good too except for reverse which still isn't that bad. I figure metal on metal...

    Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

    I haven't tried it without the bushings yet -- this is a new transmission going in. I'm assuming it would work just fine because the linkage mates with the arms pretty snugly. The arm numbers are: 2338 (comes up as 64/65 A body), middle arm 2130, back arm 2359. @Daves69 , I looked at all three...

    Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

    I don't see my shifter listed in there. I guess I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I see all three listed have bushings, but none of them have the same reverse lever as mine..unless I'm looking at something wrong. Either way, it seems as though this shifter is an odd-ball, or at least, less...

    Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

    I don't know any tool makers with a ram edm, but I know a machine shop that could do work for me if I really needed. @moparmat2000 , or anybody else who might know, is it possible that this shifter might not have ever come with bushings? The rods fit in the holes pretty snug, and the only lever...

    Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

    No. That's a great idea, but I want this done today. Plus, if I drill out the holes to the standard Hurst pit-pack size, then I'll never have to worry about it again. Pit packs can be found everywhere and there are aftermarket bushings for them too. I hate how I always find these problems...

    Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

    I don't think the tranny and shifter came together, but the shifter reverse has a 2336 which google says is a 64/65, so that matches what you said. @mbaird, I did a bunch of research and I only see one pit pack available. I'll probably end up drilling them out and taking my time. I know they're...

    Hurst pit pack doesn't fit hurst shifter!?

    Hey guys, I'm having a weird issue I need help with. I have a hurst compeititon plus shifter that I bought a Hurst pit pack for because it needed bushings and clips....I got the pit pack and go to install it only to find out the bushings don't fit the shifter arms! The shifter arm diameter is...

    Bearing Retainer Interchangeability

    Ended up dropping the bell and taking it to a machinist to turn my original 4.3xx bell into a 4.8 compatible one....The other bell I had for for a big block and wouldn't fit my small block. I figured it'd be the same price and a lot less work hunting for parts just to drop it off. The machinist...

    Bearing Retainer Interchangeability

    So what should I tell the machinist if I drop off the bell? If the bell is 5.125 and the bearing is 4.8, should the ring go from 5.125 to 4.799 to allow for some interference? Of course Brewers doesn't have one of their adapter rings listed for this application....

    Bearing Retainer Interchangeability

    Update: The two are not interchangeable, I tried it today. The A230 retainer is too small on the 4.80 A833. However, I found a bellhousing I had in storage that is ~5.1in diameter. Obviously this is bigger than the 4.8 retainer on the transmission I have. Can I use this bell and let the...
