Hello gents,
I'm sure this has been covered to death here, but cant find in search.
What needs to be done to convert 727 auto behind 426 to jerico manual g/box in a 1970 challenger?
I guess it needs new tailshaft / clutch and pedals, new G/box K member and tunnel mods.
Plus a bellhousing. Does anyone make these to convert?
Thank you, much appreciated.

You can get many of the components from Brewers http://www.brewersperformance.com/

You don't need a new K-frame.

[b][/b]Only thing that would need modification is the opening for the shifter itself.
Uses a GM /400 style yoke.Driveshaft length as required .
Rear mount will be off as well, shouldn't be too hard to adapt/fab.

I think the Jerico is 22".

Make sure your crankshaft has a pilot bushing or pilot bearing in it and it is machined deep enough for the input shaft to fit into it without bottoming out scope twocents luck

I wanted to run a Lenco behind my Hemi. However, it just wasn't in the budget
