    Just to give you an update, there's nothing happening. The pro porting guy withdrew from this project. Also the guy who's supposed to do the CAD work, has shitloads of more important jobs. But we'll...

    15 years ago when I built my car, I just walked into a local parts store and purchased a BCA1505 Throwout Bearing. I think it's a generic part that GM used all the way through the 70's.

    If yes, did you have to modify the transmission tunnel?
    And did you fabricate something for the rear...
