Help!!

[South Bend Clutch]

I saw a thread on the TDR forums one time where a guy was putting a Dodge transmission on a Chevy engine and I have been trying to go through the archives but can't seem to find it. I have a gentleman calling me back who is trying to do this and I wanted to direct him in the right way. Does anyone recall this thread or able to find this thread.



Thank you,



Peter

Peter,

Try Advance Adapters in Paso Robles, CA. They have been in business for a very long time and have adapters for just about everything, although they specialize in 4WD applications. If they don't have it I bet they could tell you where you could find it.

Web site is www.advanceadapters.com

Phone is 800-350-2223

Good luck,

Bob

Check www.wilcap.com. This company has been making adapters probably longer than anyone. I met Tony Capana at his shop back in the 60's or 70's and I have never met a better fabricator in my life. He was doing diesel conversions back then on cars and trucks. I remember seeing some small car there with a 4 cylinder Perkins in it. He was machining most adapters and flywheels from flat aluminum or steel plates in his shop.

I checked the site and saw that they are saying they are back. I am assuming the family is making an effort to revive the magic. Check out the pictures link for a look at some really old hot rods, such as Tony's Marmon v16 powered hot rod.

Thanks all!!



I have passed all this info on to the guy. I am sure he will get something done with one of these companies.
