TKO 600 and Low Hump - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

AcampoDave · 01-04-2017, 09:06 PM

I wonder does the tko600 fit a low hump floor? I did a lot of searching, but just didn't get a good answer. I have a '66 and the floor is low and one solid piece. The cab was originally from an automatic truck. As of now tho' I have an aging Saginaw 4 speed. It's mated to a stock cast iron bell that came with the '63 manual tranny frame I used when I assembled the truck. I'm just kinda weighing my options here as I would like to stay with a stick.

Thanks, if a 500 doesn't fit a low hump, odds are that the 600 won't either.

Externally the 500 and 600 are the same size. It's internal ratios and a couple parts that changes the torque rating (500 ft. lbs or 600 ft. lbs input torque).

Nice! So your carpet still fit after the nip and tuck to the tunnel? That would be concern of mine too having a non removable hump and all.

I haven't got there yet. The days just fly by.
I think I'm going to fabricate a small spacer and cover it with matching red leather like the seat. It'll only be about 1-1/2" high. Then I will screw the boot to that. The carpet will be under the spacer. I may make it into a cup holder/console. If you have any good ideas, please pass them along.
