one thing im happy about , i was afraid it wouldnt fit a th400 with a gearvendor but theres plenty of room between the tail of the automatic and the crossmember ...... did you done the mockup on a longbed or a schortbed nathan ?

I used to pester Nathan about the truck arm set-up when I had my 74. Having owned one of each short wheel base trucks (truck-arm w/coils vs leafs), I can say w/o any doubt the truck arm offered a superior ride per dollar invested.
Now that the 74 is doing new things w/it's new owner, I have the dually & always thought the T/A's could work on one of these as well w/the right design set-up. I was only kidding though when I asked the question.....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
