  • Finished the install of the Tremec TKX and took the 66 on a test drive. Video quality is pretty poor because of the old Sony on a tripod

      With a 3.42 differential gear freeway RPM was about 2,000 at 70 mph

    Did you have any issues with drive shaft vibration? Does not look like it in the video
    Did you use the stock tranny cross member and did you by a Tremek driveshaft?
    I installed a TKX in my 65 and have been fighting drive shaft vibration at 55-60

      Used the stock cross-member and had to drill a new hole on each side of the frame to bolt it in. Also used the stock driveshaft and had it shortened and re-balanced. No vibration at all but have only tested up to 85MPH.

      Did you check the run out on the bell housing ? I did the same thing….I’m assuming since the Muncie didn’t vibrate the tremek would not vibrate.

      The Muncie that came with the car was bad. The previous owner also changed the ring gears to 3:83. Since I had to change the transmission I figured the 5th gear would help me at higher rpm’s.
