Just bought a 36 Dodge 5 window coupe

Nice car but needs work. I have to get it to the house, but I'm excited.

Plans are to put the 53 218 in it with the T5 behind it and freshing up the hypoid rear end, disc brakes and not sure what else right now.

Any suggestions on modifications etc. will be appreciated.

Thanks

Congradulations on 36. My Uncle had a 36 Plymouth for over 40 years.

I have some of his 36 parts in my 38 Plymouth.

Check out the tread "5 speed not T5", about putting a TK5, Ranger 5 speed

transmilssion behind a 218. It was an easy install, and is working real

good. No adapter needed to buy....

I tried the setup with the stock rearend 3.9, and later installed a

Ranger rearend, 3.73. Both rearends worked very good, but I like the 3.73

better.....
