Your block code indicates an over the counter 1960 389 SD 4 bolt main block. Maybe why you can't find the T1. Have you had the pan off?

Have you considered just the 8 lug "look"? Using the 8 lugs to cover either regular drum or disc brakes. You would have to have your axles and drums redrilled to 5 on 5 but that wouldn't be hard.

That is the 2nd cheapest 1968-9 GTO on ebay. It may not be a great car but it is in the ball park for cars that are for sale out there. They are all over priced as far as I'm concerned.

You can't buy any GTO in half way decent condition for $20K. If it is what you want buy it as long as it's reasonably solid.

Dataway is correct. Slide the tool between the base of the handle and the plastic washer from the handle end. If nobody screwed up the installation of the clip it will pop right out.

Be careful of marine engines. Some of them are reverse rotation. What a surprise when one came into the shop for a rebuild and we discovered what it was.
