Re: [Amc-list] Good news--maybe

[Jim Blair <carnuck@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I forgot to mention the IH is a '69 and my 16' tilt bed "dump" truck is a '70 1800 Loadstar flatbed with siderails 
(it'll make an excellent tow rig) I was rethinking the 327 today and may just put my '77 AMX 304 (that's been 
under the hood of my '73 J4000 since '01) with 727 in there instead.
   The IH 4 speed is a side shift trans (was 4 speed on the column) and my buddy is looking for a reasonable 
priced 5 with overdrive for it rather than mess with the divorced tcase setup.

" A: On a similar (or is that sinister?) topic, a buddy of mine (one from
" AK) just bought himself an IH Travelall with the IH6 (241?) and 4 speed

that 4sp is -probably- a t18.
 
" The plan is to get a 4.0L into there with O/D or put a Warn O/D into the
" D20 (the IH 6 is a sloooow revver) Thinking maybe the 5 speed from my
" dumptruck might even fit, if the bell is the same?
 
dunno.  i wouldn't count on that.  with a divorced t/c, just plan on
swapping the motor/tranny together...
 
would the 4.0 really need an o/d?  it's not a particularly slow revver.
 
" (maybe put the 392
" in the TA and put the Jeep/Nash 327/th400/QT into my dumptruck?)
 
how big is the dump?
 
travelalls came with 345s and 392s so that's not a problem, but that's
a very big heavy mill [with a lot of forged parts] better suited imho
to the dump than the 327.
