the motor is a 360 out of 82 350 van the tranny is a np540 out of a 72?? w500 dump truck. the axles are out of dodge m880 1.25 ton army truck. The motor was an auto setup so i had to find a flywheel for it also the crankshaft had to be drilled out for the standard trany input shaft. becouse the input shaft is larger than the np435 trany that the 360s run i had to buy a custom clutch. The trany is a 5 speed but not an overdrive it has a pto port on both sides so you can put a winch in the front and back but the derictional pto is 675.00$$$$ . I used the orignal transfer case but becouse the trany is longer i had to get a custom driveline (7.5 in) . Becouse it was so short thay wanted 450 to 500??? for it. I bought a helitool v8 motor and hanging pedels kit and everthing has worked out fine. Exsept the starter it hits on the steering box. i had to move the wire termanal and redrill the belhouseing so i could spin the solnoid out of the way. i also didn't find the short fan belt pully so i had to move the radiator foward 2in so i oppted to have a new one made. But this made the winch mount rubing the raditaor. I had to make a new angleiron that was just turned over to fix this. The axles have a 4:10 raito. and the tires are iroc 39.5 13.50 20 and are just over 40in tall. with this set up i should be able to go 65mi @2400 RPMs I have not had time to work on the truck in the last two or three months so it like the pics. I will post more as it is finished. I hope this helps.
