Re: NV4500 into my '63 rustbucket
The next part was the most difficult, and I don't think I could have done it without the help of my brother. The two of us got the nv4500 to slide in, and we bolted it up to the plate. You'll notice that I didn't make a rear crossmember for the trans, and at this point, I'm not planning to. I know they put the sm465 behind a mounted cast iron bellhousing like the sm420 had, and the nv4500 just weighs an extra 20 pounds or so. We'll see if it falls out, but I think it will be fine.
