All –
I’m at a difficult decision here with my coupe project –
I pulled a 351w and trans from a 1970 LTD – the block is back .30 over – the LTD trans is an automatic (I think a C-6) but it could be a C-4 …I’m still cleaning it up (will run the numbers) …I have a 1993 4cyl coupe / auto – that I’m taking it down to the ‘shell’ but was going to leave the dash and steering wheel in …I’m a paint and body person (worked in a bod shop when younger) ….but with making the cam choice to rebuild the motor – I really want to switch over the coupe’s automatic to a T-5 stick …….that means tearing the dash apart ….hanging pedals …cutting holes …finding all of the assemblies – clutch fork etc…..I’m re-building the motor 1st so I have to make the decision so I can pick a cam….but …it’s a commitment ….I thought making the decision to do an all ‘black’ interior was bad enough – new seat belts / etc…but since it needs seat covers headliner etc anyway …it wasn’t as bad as this …what do you guys think about switching it over from a auto to a stick….no drag strip – this will be a weekend cruiser…..let me know….
thx
