I had the 79-80 FA trans in my repu ,the only problem is they are getting harder to find and they cant' handle to much HP. The FB trans are easy to shorten and easy to find ,and the starter is an issue ,no sledge hammer though .I use an air chisel with a planishing hammer attachment (you can find the hammer end at Eastwood on line)and a palm nailer with a carige bolt in it .Its fast and easy with clean results (does not look like you modified the tunnel when your done ).Good luck p.s. they're are so many little things to do it can be hard to get all the info .
