·OK. a shopping list of what is needed to do my planned 64 S6 to V8 (SB) conversion with the school kids. The plan would be to build a quick, VERY good handling car.
1) V8 drop centerlink (1" more drop than S6) (Ffound one, it should arrive next week)
2) L.side exhaust solution (I'm going with early 273 CI manifolds (got them)
3) V8 mounts (easy enough....Schumacher) (just gotta make a call)
4) LBP Disks: 73 Disk setup with UCAs (gottem")
5) 8 1/4 suire-grip with 3.55s (got it)
Questions raised; comments or solutions?
1) V8 gas pedal assy....are they really diff. than S6???
2) Radiatior? Upper tank hose usually not an issue, lower? SB lower tank outlets moved from L (drivers) to R in the late 60's. Outlet sizes change too S6? SB? BB?
3) Later (donor 1967) 904 speedo drive not compatible with 64 speedo? true? what's the fix.
4) Custom driveshaft needed.
5) shfiter for 904? (floor / console?)
6) Front sway bar options?
7) rear sway bar options on a stock A body 8 1/4?
8) frame connections or any suggestion on stiffening the structure so it will handle?
9) A L T E R K A T I O N ? ? ? ? ?
