I'm in process of gathering parts for the swap. I know the x-member will need to be cut (per Buffalo Steve). I really don't want to cut, but I could not find out any definite info about a bolt in swap. I think the only bolt in is the original tranny (you could get a PG rear with 3:55 gears for better road performance). You might want to investigate a latter 3 speed (66 or latter for full syncro I believe) behind a 48-53 truck bellhousing (per Patrick). Bellhousing will maintain the rear engine mounts & will permit the bolt up of the latter 3 speed. I don't know about the x-member arrangement for this. You still will not have the OD gear (only way to go per Langdon). Nothing easy with these early Chev's. Sherman
