I wouldn't send 1cent to the parts place for any of there parts . It's a poor business operation.

Agree with Shane. I've only had bad luck. Grant had bad luck as well. They send the wrong parts and then are a pain in the ass when trying to return. Just be patient. That is a lot of cash for parts you can pull off a parts car. The onyl thing you should need to replace from a parts car are the rubber boots. You still need to pull the engine and drill the crank, unless you know the crank is drilled for the pilot bearing.

Thanks for the feedback. I was just looking to see what options are out there. The 330 is coming out for a refresh when I'm ready and I can have the crank drilled at that time. Or maybe a 425. ;D

just a suggestion....keep looking for parts while you refresh the engine, which will take some time. If all that is done and you still need parts, then resort to spending high dollar for new stuff.

I wouldn't even use em' as a last resort. Called them twice, both times they left me feeling like I interuped there day. Did buy a part from them once. Got bent over the pickle barrel on the shipping, big time!

I also have a 330 auto crank that I'd give ya if you wanted to have that one modified instead. You just pay the shipping. I just hate to haul it to the scrap yard.

If you're pulling the engine, check the boss on the engine where the Z-bar is located to make sure that is drilled and tapped as well. Most likely not if it is an engine in an automatic car.

Does the drive shaft need to be shortened when going from a 2 speed auto to a 4 speed?
