  • I've been hard at it! Motor and transmission went back together and I manager to stab them in the car. Everything fit shockingly well! Now I'm down to all the tedious little things that take a pile of time. Linkage, brake lines, belts ect. Leave a like, let me know what you guys think! As always fellow along on Instagram @ddspeedshop

    Great video, it brings back memories from the 60's when I was changing engines, and transmissions in my 57 Chevy. Those were fun times. I will be 72 in December, and it does take me a little longer to do things due to Father Time, but I still enjoy working on the old stuff.

    Hey Danny, Great job bud. Do yourself a favor and when you're in a junk yard or going by a trany shop, stop by and ask if they have a old pilot shaft that came out of any old broken trany (with the right spline) for GM. Most shops will give you a broken one for free and keep it around for installing bushings and clutch alignment. You can also pickup a cheap alignment tool on Amazon for $20 but I would rather have a real one. The best part of having one is you don't have to worry about messing up the bearing installing it. Have a good one bud. Later

    Well Lad, your on the one yard line and inches for touch down and I know you well as this is sunday night here (company) It is running, valves ran in... cam broke in and exhaust burns on one or more places but trust me when you found the bushing wouldn't let you in Double D, (wifes bra size?) I would of shit biscuits and nails and hit the Jack Daniels for at least one swig then get er done. I been there but if that is the only blemish in this build then your golden. I share as many as I can to people with channels as well as send to buddies, they are not as old as me so chances are at least one will subscribe.. a drop of water in the ocean I know but damn it, three hundred and forty million people in the usa alone and I shared this in the UK and Russia as well. Traction bars or four link.. hard to guess but if it were me I would roll on traction bars for the time being. Your still working for a living and not ready to retire on videos yet so the fifty seven four door delete will pull some serious coin maybe as people ate the girl friends car bit and it still has milage to go yet.
