I’ll definitely be following up with you CaptainFab! I have some time before I do the complete overhaul.

And the Jeep AX15 swap wasn’t bad at all! The adapter plate allowed me to retain all the Chevy parts and just adapt in the Jeep gearbox. Had to cut the floor and modify the shifter, build a trans bracket and then send my driveshaft out to be cut and the correct u-joint put on. Huge improvement over the Muncie 4 speed...we’ll see how she holds up behind the 400sbc over time. I also plan to have the engine overhauled this winter.
