  1. I am an old street rodder from the ’60’s. I have a Project Truck (1985 Ford Ranger). It was old and cheap. That’s the best kind – right? I already narrowed a 9″ Ford rear axle, tubbed it with 12″ Thompsons. Put a 302 in with a T5. Performance isn’t what I’m looking for. I need some cheap horsepower. I’m thinking a Chevy small block. Pull the 302 and putting in a stroked 350. What am I looking at with your T56?

    Thanks for your time and response.

    1. Bud,
      6-speeds start at $3300 plus whatever parts you need to install. All in all around $4500. Give us a call 931-646-4836 for a more detailed quote. Thanks

  2. Planning on putting a new Hellcat in my 70roadrunner,this set up looks perfect.what would I be looking at?

    1. I have a real V-code 70 Roadrunner, but the block is a 71 block with the 6bbl heavy duty parts in it. To answer your question about “What will I (you) be looking at?” with a Hellcat Hemi in a 70 Roadrunner? One of the most menacing looking muscle cars of the era, with an engine that brings together 50 years of MOPAR MUSCLE dominance! Good luck, and shifting your own gears is the BEST way to experience the ride of life!
