I am doing this trans swap in my 70 Firebird right now, and I can tell you it is 50x harder to do it in a FWD car with todays complex systems. As the rest have said, I'd leave that one alone and look forward to your next SS purchase with a manual trans. That makes a lot more sense. I sure don't regret buying mine even when being caught in rush hour traffic. This clutch is pedal is a breeze compared to the catapult spring on my Bird!

XXL, your choice in pictures never ceases to amaze me!

Hey... go over to my electrical problem thread and post me a fix, will ya?




edit: hahahahahahahaha... apparently my reference to the seating area in the car where driver controls are located is a bad word.
She looks more like the water barrier type to me
