Default Re: Grandpas old GMC 910 from the barn.

If the parts truck was also equipped with an inline 6, it shouldn't be a big deal. The only way to know for sure is compare input shafts, bell housings, overall length dimensions. You might also need to address the driveline length if the granny gear adds length to the gearbox.

Measure twice, cut once.

In my case, one of the PO's added a floor shifter to the 3-speed. For some reason the mount bracket at the back of the tranny vibrated enough to crack in half. I fabbed up a replacement from 3/8" plate, it failed too (took a few years).
