Finally got a chance lately to get back to work on this, Cleaned and Gave the replacement engine a Flint rattle can overhaul. Cleaned the bell housing and A/C compressor brackets.
Today I Cleaned the Saginaw 4-speed, and found a couple things I found interesting. I never knew the was a difference between the Transmission rear mount, and the counter weight mount. Both of the originals are in good shape. and the the P/N's are visible. Also the rubber on the counter weight mount has "Blue" cast into the rubber. Strange that they have the same P/N but there are obvious differences.
First Picture is of the dirty Transmission with the aftermarket Hurst shifter
2nd pic shows the differences in the mounts
3rd pic is of the rear mount P/N 9788007
4th pic is the weight mount P/N 978807 Blue with Steel
The last picture is with a coat of Cast Iron paint applied.
