Have potential buyer for my 4-speed setup.
He has a 440 Magnum powered '70 Chally (used to be a 6-pot)
Anyone think of any reason my stuff wont work for him?
I know the bellhousing will fit a B/B and that he'll probably have to get his prop altered.
Will the 23-spline O/P shaft fit?

Ta :)

Yes but I think the tail shaft may be smaller (shorter) also on an E body you have to check the position of the shifter location

A body gearboxes are shorter (i.e. yours) AFAIK

Paul
If you go on BBD.com, there is a 4 speed section, Yours will have a shorter tail shaft but there is info on making an adaptor plate to use an A body trans in a Challenger.
