<VV> Need help putting 140 block into PG

[BBRT]

Charlie,
You can jury rig adapters from the larger 140 exhaust stubs/stacks with an 
inner sleeve or tubing of a piece of metal that will fit the smaller 110 
logs. Now, if you have a 140 with 140 exhaust logs, then all you have to do 
is make the ends of the logs mate to a slightly smaller "tail pipe/crossover 
" assy. Again, to see how it will run, an inner sleeve adpater to help mate 
up. Just get a length of a couple of inches of small tail pipe. Anything 
will do for just running it to see if it runs. Not like you are trying to 
race it.

>> 2) Need to change bell housing (got one)

>> 3) Need to change out pilot bushing (thanks Matt)

>> 4) Is oil pan different? I have both so I can compare when the sun comes

>> I'm confused - you want to put a 140 into a PG car or a 4 spd manual car?
>> Yep, the bell housings are different.  The exhaust is different between a

>> So, please help us understand your intentions better.
