My car is a 1972 coupe. I am planning to install the motor in a couple months from now. I have to ship it to Greece first.
I have a 3.73 12 bolt rear differential 1350 spindles 3 1/2” half shafts , M22 super case drag special transmission. Hopefully it will last….on drag radials…
Any advice regarding the installation?
