Auction #382516348217. 1955 1956 1957 Chevrolet Chevy Turbo Transmission Mount Brackets, w/Hardware. Hope this helps you.

Is the plate on backwards? Starter opening appears to be on the wrong side.

Check these out. Designed to mount late model trans in 55-57 Chevy with stock bell housing trans mounts. On Ebay right now.

71-73 Mustang will work in 46-48 Plymouth and Dodge.

You might want to look into early Ford F100 truck front shock frame mounts. I recall several people on here using them.

I read somewhere that 46 had white reflectors in the taillights and 47 and 48 had red.

On some models rear sump truck oil pan is needed.

Harbor Freight has them all the time for about 12.00 but I've heard that after being used once or twice they become inaccurate. I always bought Snap-On tools in the past. But if you aren't using them everyday I find it hard to justify the cost.

Great car and feature interview. I'm sure you're proud. Thanks for sharing.

I'd be interested in seeing the steering arms.

I think wheel width also impacts tire height. Wouldn't a 215 be taller on a stock 4" wide wheel than on a later model 6" or 7" wide wheel?

I'm confused. Wouldn't the the 670-15 be taller than a 600-16?

A parts book I have says 1942-54 are the same sector shaft.

I have bought and sold many things on Ebay over the years. Some good experiences and some not. I myself like being able to hold things in my hands and look at them from different angles before money leaves my pocket. Unfortunately when looking for older or more rare parts that isn't always possible and usually peoples opinions on condition vary greatly. I wouldn't have been happy with those shields either.

Just my opinion but, you didn't get what you ordered so let them figure it out. Taking a hacksaw to a new radiator shouldn't be an option.

I was wondering the same thing. You have to get the wheel off to read the drum.

Not sure if this is your problem or not, but my 47 Plymouth has a bolt mounted to the bottom of the distributor that allows for additional timing movement. Just a thought.

If you had to make the holes in the rotors bigger to get it to fit over the studs, will the wheel still fit?

I was under the impression the adapters for Dodge vans from the 70's worked.

Is the 920030 box for a Nova also?

I was told that the Dodge D24 used a 1 wire sending unit and the P15 Plymouth used the 2 wire sending unit.

It's his car and he can build it however he wants. As far as helpful information, I think the best was sending him to Butch's website ( a supplier who not only advertises on this site but also sells mounts for the SBC install). As far as saving an old Mopar goes, anytime you keep an old car running regardless of motor choice you have saved it from the crusher. In the 50's and 60's guys were putting Cadillac, Buick and Oldsmobile engines and Hemi's in anything as long as it made the car go faster and looked cool. I remember when people were putting big block Chevy's in early GTO's. I couldn't believe they were doing that. I've been on this forum almost 20 years and most times I say nothing because a question has been answered before I see it. The purpose of this forum is to share information. Bottom line in my opinion is if you can't give a constructive answer, don't answer at all.
