TurboNova Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 different is an lsx in a first gen, they are a unique swap for this clip because there is not alot of room. If you do an aftermarket clip they fit better but the clips are starting around 2500.00. But as of now its still for sale. But if its still around once the 72 is finished then I will most likely start on the 63 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboNova Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 8.2 10 bolt. I will proly put an 8.5 in it if I do build it since you can find em for 100 bucks and iv already done one for the 72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWW$HEEET Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 does that require shortening the housing/relocating any tabs? sorry, last question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboNova Posted July 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 the guy I got the car from had an 8.5 5 lug reared from a 68 chevy for 100 bucks I should of taken but I did not have my truck to haul it home. I would do it the same as my 72 and change housing ends to big ford ends so I would not use gm c clips anymore. That is cheap I paid 90 at chassis shop for new ends to be welded on and tubes completely welded to center section. For less then a 1000 bucks I had 35 spline moser axles, full spool, gears, 1350 pinion yoke, big ford ends, girdle, all welding and rear setup. There is a turbo nova with 2 seasons going 8.20s @ 177 with a bunch of passes on identical setup. So some stuff would need welded but it's cheap and not a big deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
