My 69 Super bee is a 4 speed the 69 trans is long gone, the trans in it is a '70 with the newer style transmission mount (like the Auto). What crossmember can I use, A 69 B body auto crossmember or a 70 or later crossmember.I think the Auto and manual crossmembers were the same 1970 and later.
Until I got this B Body I thought all man and auto crossmembers were the same, like the E bodies. Will an E body crossmember work in a '69 B body with a 70 type man transmission?
thanks in advance

For a 70 Tailshaft B/E 4 speed you would use a 66-69 AUTO trans crossmember , the 70 will require you to drill out the holes that for the 4 bolts that hold it to the torsion bar crossmember as the 66-69 used a larger diameter bolt.

Thanks for the reply, are the E and B body crossmembers interchangeable?
