What transmission? Still the sm420? If you're using 3.73s, are you switching from the ho52 to a 14bff?

A '61 is getting old enough that I would tend to want the cool old original gasoline engine, but Detroits are a favorite of mine, and pretty much always an acceptable transplant LOL! Awesome truck, look forward to seeing more vids of it as you progress.

@realvanman1

Thanks! I will hopefuly have some more time and money to work on it and get some new videos posted of the progress. 3.73 gears and 36 in tires are on the list right now.

Awesome! Did you put the Brownie in too?

You need to put more info on here so people can see what you have done.

[therealpope79]

@gmbo6969 How have you been? Not yet on the brownie, I am still trying to get the whole vid to post... Looking for a long stepside to install so that I can run it down the road. It is fun to drive!
