yup. good luck. hope the ole windsor makes it one more race.

 

That motor doesn't owe me anything :sonicjay:

 

 

A few measurements and things look promising. Aa makes a spud shaft that is female 27 spline and male 31 spline. Looks like I'll make an adapter to fit a c6 tcase adapter to the 4L60. Which should give me just enough separation to fit the Aa shaft. And by retaining the c6 adapter I don't have to modify the 205, the shifters, or my trans crossmember. And the tcase can stay in its current spot meaning no driveshaft changes. As long as the accessories fit in the chassis it should be a pretty straight forward swap.

 

Looks like the typical broken bolts on the rear of the exhaust manifold. Did that t-case input shaft make it to you?

No worries, I've probably repaired a thousand of em :sonicjay:.

Both front and rear are broke on both banks. Typical.

 

Yes I have it, thank you. Still may or may not use it.

 

Yes I can't count how many I've fixed. Just did a couple on a 2010. You sure would think that they could have fixed those bolts by then

 

Any of them really, ford/dodge/gm can't figure it out. Atleast Chevy are the easiest to fix lol. 3v fords bring the biggest suck. Especially passenger front two.

 

That should make things easier.

27 spline female - 31 spline male

 

Time to get creative and build the adapter to fit the c6 tcase adapter to the 4L60 trans.

 

Clean up time

 

Little cleaner and a few new gaskets.

 

Exciting stuff.

Who is going to weld it up?

 

Weld what?

 

The transfer case adapter

 

Drill and tap. No welding.

 

I pictured a tube in between 2 plates, your execution seems simpler.

 

Plates made. Gonna have to get creative to seal it up though.

 

Need to trim the edges off next.

This is a cool concept. So in front of the alum plate is 4L60E, and behind is Ford C6?

 

Started weeding through the harness as well.

 

Maybe you already have everything you need, but I found lt1swap.com helpful when I built my harness.

 

That's what I referenced when I did my harness for my LJ last winter. :thumb:

 

2 1/2 weeks, you better get to it.

 

Retaining the stock c6 adapter means I do not have to change my crossmember, trans mount, or change my 205 twin stick setup. As they all use the c6 adapter for mounting and positioning. The adapter pictured is just a spare one I picked up after I broke my other one at mustache run a couple years ago. The adapter currently in the buggy, which has will get reused, is a cast iron not aluminum adapter.

Also by keeping the adapter and tcase unmodified, and keeping tcase exactly in the same position, I don't have to Shorten or lengthen driveshafts.

 

Doesn't get any easier or cheaper than that.

 

In theory lol.

Alot of Sawzall vibrations this morning.
