A518 Conversion Questions (Paging 1wildrt) - 08/06/08 09:08 PM
OK I am slowly doing the A518 Conversion on my 70 E Body.
I have trimmed the transmission and if I raise the tranny into the tunnel I feel like the space is a little tight. That isn't so bad but with the trans about 1/2" from the floorpan/trans-crossmember the oil pan is only about 3/8 from the centerlink.
If anyone has done this conversion (cough 1wildrt cough) could you look at these pics and tell me what you think? I had the frame straightened years ago and now I am worried it is still off and hence the tight clearance on the oil pan.
