Parts place 4 speed conversion

Just curious as to if anyone has used it and what they're thoughts were. It looks like a very complete kit. I know how some people feel about them, but this looks ok. Brandon

Jim, never heard of him, is he on the board?

 

Yes --Dave is maybe the oldest restorer of GS Buicks and he makes a few parts. He is in Wisconsin.

How much of this stuff if any is different between a Chevelle?

 

Seach the past posts for information on this. I thnk most say that the geometry for Chevelles is different.

 

I used the kit, most parts work OK, i think it would work fine on a small block car. For my 455, i had to modifiy the Z bar and fabricate my own linkage from Z bar to fork. There are just a few buick guys that sell the big block parts that will bolt right in, Good luck! When i did my convertion, i could not find a big block buick z bar,linkage to fork or the proper fork.
