4 spd help
About to swap out a turbo 400 in my lemans for a m-20.... how should I clean/restore the transmission cassing? Any other steps I need to do to before installing?
Can anyone list what parts I will need to complete this? Are aftermarket clutch forks usable? |

Clutch linkages and shifter/linkages are a difficult part of this operation, wish you the best of luck.

I finished fixing my 69 GTO 4spd setup last summer when we put in the 461 stroker. To say the previous clutch and linkage was bastardized was being kind. I don't know where the parts came from but they were not 69 parts!
I did end up using an aftermarket clutch fork because the stock one kept hitting one of the front trans bolts on the Muncie which did not allow 100% clutch action. Definetly a royal PITA. Bad thing is I need to swap out the fresh close ratio and use a wide ratio trans this spring to use my new powerband correctly. At least I know what I'm doing this time around. |

Probably time to invest in a shop manual if you don't have one already. That will have a diagram of the parts that you need.
