Anyone have time to go scrape up a number on there slant six bell housing..
I have a 1542 with a 318 5 speed.
I have a 1979 slant six engine. I am entertaining installing the slant six into the 76 tucker.
I would like to keep my 5 spd.
I was *told* that the old flat head six bell housings fit. (they do not)
I was also told the flywheels fit... (they do not)
If you have a tucker with a slant six 5 speed combo, I need/want to know any numbers stamped in the bell housing. "if the motor is older or newer than 74' might matter"
this tucker is getting repowered.
it will either be a 4B with a IH T-19 four speed.
Or
1979 slant six gas.
Yes a smarter person would rebuild the 318 and get on with life. I am interested in a more difficult path in life...
