I have a '46 Chevy 1/2 ton, has a '55-'62 235 in it (newer pressure lubricated). It currently has the 3 speed without overdrive. Currently has a 4.11 ring/pinion in it, but I'll upgrade to a 3.55 first, no matter if I keep or swap out the current 3 speed.
Is it possible to adapt a T-5 manual to my truck without too many modifications?
I see some folks with '47-'55 (Advanced Design) incorporating a newer open driveshaft from the '56-'60 (Task Force Design) to allow for that.
I haven't found any info about people doing this on a torque tube.
Hot Rod Works has this conversion, but this is for the older 235 in the passenger car which wasn't pressure lubricated.
