Re: [AMC-list] 287-327 to 700series GM trans?
Beside Gus Averill , who I tried to contact about the matter , Bob
Hull in Bellingham, Washington also did his own conversion to bolt
the 700 series GM overdrive transmissions onto the early 287 & 327
AMC V-8. Bob wrote a multi part series in last years AMO
newsletters "American Motoring " detailing his conversion process .
I don't like to see people duplicating the same effort to re-invent
the wheel . Also note: There are commercial conversion kits to use
the 700 series GM overdrive 4 speed automatic transmission on the
later AMC V-8s and 6s from 1972 up with the V-8 bolt pattern. Both
Advance Adopters and a company called NOVAK make commercial kits.
NOVAK also has a very good knowledge center on the web detailing all
that is involved in the conversion process for the late AMC engines.
It's mostly set up for the Jeeps but it works on cars too. NOVAK also
includes a new flex plate in there that Advanced does not for about
the same price. LRDaum
