    Looks great out of the shed, congratulations for getting to this point. Can I say I hate the Simmons. Convo's are way cooler.

    Well since last year had a change of plans.
    Had a diff built for it by Boss engineering lonsdale.
    Had a turbo 350 built by Norwood trans.
    So out with the T5 gearbox and Salisbury.

    Hi Jaft, why remove the T5 manual box? Was it mated to a trimatic pattern motor or turbo pattern? I'm restoring but like the idea of an extra 5th gear, just interested to know pro's and cons

    No real reason buddy.
    Just wanted to go in a different direction.
    Main reason why i went 5 speed was dor the highway cruising..
