Very cool sound when lumbering through the parking lot.
My old '76 Jeep CJ-5 had side pipes. AMC 304 V8, headers and worn out glass packs under the doors with turn outs. SWEET!
Sucked at interstate speeds, though

Sadly, sitting in the garage... out of action. Trans won't shift out of 1st. Hoping modulator or governor is bad.
If not, I've already purchased an ultra-rare, '79-only, 301 manual flywheel.
Already acquired clutch pedal set up, Z-bar linkage, bellhousing, etc....... probably do a manual trans swap.

You know a T5 would probably live fine behind that motor and would be alot easier to install not to mention cheaper than a six speed and more useful
than a four speed.

Yep... I have one for the Vega Wagon autocrosser project that has stalled. Tweaked frame rail/unibody.
Might just try it. Got the trans cheap. It's a Non-world class from a V8 with the 0.63 OD. Might be cool to try.

I agree about building it for yourself. That's what matters, especially if you have a connection/past with the vehicle (like you do). Not much of a chance of someone else even getting a chance to get it from you...... at least for a while. Right?
This one is for sure, all about you!!!!
