    I'd love to take a gander at that 305... If nothing else, help you put the plug wires back on.

    Cool Videos, What transmission is in the '85? Also what shifter is being used?

    • @BestDamnShopAround
      @BestDamnShopAround  Рік тому +1

      T56 from a 97 trans am with a mid-shift conversion from SST. Shifter is the longest Hurst shifter they make that I modified the angle at the bottom to suit the bench seat.

      Thanks! I have a 1978 GMC. It has the original 3 speed that was converted to floor shift. The shifter sits too far back. Can't slide the seat forward...LOL.

    This question isn’t about wheel hop… I’m about to flip kit mine and I’ve read a lot about the pinion angle after the kit that causes bind to the drive shaft? Is that a legit thing? If so, how do you fix that? I know this video would probably solve the problem but with just my basic flip kit and no extra money is there something I could do

    • @BestDamnShopAround
      @BestDamnShopAround  Рік тому +2

      With the standard C10 flip kit I've never ran into an issue with pinion angle. Always double-check though! They make thin pinion shims if it is a problem, they can be placed between the leaf spring and the flip kit to adjust the pinion up or down
