Thanks everybody
I want a speedo drive that fits into the hole where the electronic sender sits - in the tail end of the th700r4, I am suppose to get it next week
I just got my 305 TPI just to discover that my trusted starter from the 262 does not fit the 305 block and everybody tells me it is the same block, well it does not have the same holes
It is not the same oilpan as I need the dipstick to go from the side of the oilpan to the outside of the exhaust manifold on the left side , where the pan I got on the 305, the dipstick is in the block on the inside of the manifold, but will not clear the monza manifold as it is over the spark plugs close to the valve cover.
Luckily I discovered the the drain plug thread is ruined - - before I got the motor back in the car - - I still had to get the pan of, just after I got it on - - dam, always check the drain plug before installing the oilpan
Even small modifications have there challenges
