Re: New high school project! Need help!

It's probably strong enough to handle the power of a 305 V8. J/k your best bet would be to find a tranny and tranfer case from a 5 spd that had a 4.3 V6. Then it would be almost a direct bolt up. as long as the 305, and 4.3 have the same crank flywheel bolt pattern.
This is what I'm collecting parts for my swap. mine 2wd though. I have a 5spd from a 4.3 s10 along with the flywood and everything else attached.

If your doing the swap for more power, look into the 3.4 v6 swap. then all your tranny stuff will bolt up. theres alot info about that over on the s10forum.com site. But be prepared there not as nice as the guys on this board.
