Picked up a 1952 chevy 3100
olds 350 with th400
Pretty original
Great shape

Keeping it on the road is a challenge. Tried adjusting the steering box.
Any other ideas?
Mustang II?
I've only seen sbc mounts for them.
Help

Welcome! From Sioux Falls South Dakota

I went with a 1973 Nova subframe

Not sure about the mounts but ANYTHING can be fabricated

I'm sure you can figure something out on a thread here

new king pins, drag link, tie rod ends and new spring bushing
collectively they all add up to play in the steering

once you go to mustII then everything changes
brakes, column and half the under dash wiring need to be modified
and then your stuck with 5 lug lowered front and 6 lug stock height in back
pretty soon your truck in in 1000 pieces all over the garage

as for motor mounts, you can fab any motor mount for any motor
they're actually one of the easiest fab projects

Re: new

Also I'm having gas pedal issues
I'm not getting enough leverage to get my secondaries to open
I have an original gas pedal put no linkage.
Anyone have a diagram on how it works
I put an aftermarket one in but not enough leverage

Re: new

I think I would approach this in a specific order:

1. Get it where I could keep it in the road

2. Get the secondaries to open
