I have an asymmetrical Rotary in a building 50 feet wide, so I was able to set the lift up 14' from the facing wall. I wanted the extra space to allow for tool box and engine hoist use.

I'll add that your TH400 yoke will not work with a Muncie. A TH350 yoke will. And throw in a manual console and manual brake pedal.

72 Grand Prix gas tanks

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
