the trans is i believe out of an older dump truck not the orginal auto, probly had a 366 in front of it at one time, i had figured in a complete swap if i did do it. my idea was to pick up a motor trans combo from a local yard that was from a rusted out truck, we tend to have alot of those...

that has crossed my mind, i was thinking bout goen somewhat modern with it, the 302 is a great motor and they say the racers still like them, but it needs new exhaust manifols, and a whole list of other patrs to make it where i want it. just had the idea of maybe a 7.3 diesel or cummins. just...

ok i have a m135 that i use for plowing snow and fire wood. i love the truck it has the stock 302 but with a 5speed stick behind it. it is way underpowerd due to age and lack of the low range in stock trans. the moter was stuck when i pulled the truck from the woods but it now runs petty good...
