Another Newbie w/ a Question
Posted: November 20, 2006, 4:31 pm
Hello Everyone!
I have been reading this site for a while and it is now time to jump in with questions and comments, both stupid and insightful (hopefully). I acquired, a while back, a '64 swb f100 for the bargain price of $0.00. The truck came originally w/ a straight six and three speed on the tree. I have a 460 and C6 tranny I am trying to stuff into the truck and noticed something that may or may not be an issue.
The rear appears to be a standard Ford 9" but as I looked down the centerline of the truck, it appears the yoke and imput shaft are sitting off center to the passenger side. I am reluctant to position that big engine that far over to compensate and keep the drivetrain in a straight line.
Am I seeing things or is that yoke off center? If it is, what do I do about it? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks from H-town!
