Re: muncie conversion

I didn't like the idea of leaving the Muncie hanging off the bell housing , So after talking to 2 different Muncie builders I decided to add the tail shaft trans mount and cross member . I did a little massaging to the cross member to have it sit right . Also I was watching some of the Chip Foose C-28 build videos and noticed he added a tail shaft cross member on it under his 5 speed so he's running engine mounts / bell housing mounts and the tail shaft mount on it . If it's good enough for Foose it's good enough for my truck .
