63 Galaxie - Driveline Prep

1. The GM automatic overdrive 4 speed was chosen because of its ability to handle large horsepower and with a heavy car we need a trans that can take the abuse. Note the plate to attach a Chevy trans to a Ford engine block.
2. We cut the plate to fit better and look cleaner.
3. A mock up block with only a dummy crank is needed for now. During this phase when grinding and welding is performed you do not want the finished product to get grit inside. This allows a cleaner job. In addition any items left on the engine during fab work are taped for scratch protection.
