Great Job Gregg! Just checked it out. Nice 65!
I remember seeing second gens in factory pictures even freshly done during transport. It was impossible to find a first gen in the factory line. So I was stoked to see this find. That’s a great...
Im sharing this one on here. It was on the Facebook group. I was pretty excited to see this find. Been looking for a factory picture forever with no luck. Here it is. Source says this is in Pontiac...
Cool. Stainless steel? I bought an original set of truck ones years back seeing that the swan mirrors were hard to come by and these had the same bases. My plan was to cut and weld like you did but...
Do those after market truck mirrors let you see the face of the mirror from the driver's seat? I've never installed one and I see it has a straight neck compared to the smaller swan neck mirrors.
Looking for ideas. It’s easier if I had a center console shifter to find a switch that works. What are you guys using for neutral safety switch using the 200-4R transmission and the stock column...
Wow. What an adventure so far. Yea, I’d like to see that unmolested deluxe too. Stop teasing. Fix those pictures
Merry Christmas everyone!
It’s always nice to see Mark and talk vans and exchange ideas. I currently had a new master cylinder on my vise ready to bench bleed to switch out my leaky master on my Monte Carlo I had just...
Steering ratio I haven’t heard much about either...being addressed. But, it’s always been a concern of mine. I’ve had to do a quick u turn but hadn’t quite made it and had to reverse and...
I’ll continue on the conversation. Mark, we like pictures. A lot of writing and no pictures. My hydro boost setup is really targeted at power breaks using power steering pressure instead of a...
Jacke, I’m excited for you to get your van back to enjoy it once again with the new upgrades! Your van was in good hands with Mark. Can’t wait to see you post once you get it.
Install and initial break-in of CAM went well with stock manifold and exhaust. I took everything apart to put the new manifold and headers and install bigger cooling and start the power steering and...
That’s funny. Is that what the silver bracket is? In doing custom work on these vans I’ve learned to collect brackets when I see them. Thicker L shaped brackets I usually throw into my bracket...
Alright, I came up with something. I flipped the shifter bracket at the transmission and was looking at the different options of creating a bracket to push from the front of the transmission. Right...
Thanks Jrinaman for sharing the pictures and your strategy. I’ll flip that shift bracket lever up and see how rotation looks like in that form.
I was thinking of maybe modifying my rear bracket...
Now that I’m looking at it, No real room up front to put a bracket there and accommodate the cable.
Thanks for sharing that Michel.
So I ran into 2 things with the 8 ft cable.
1. if I do the push from front instead of pull and leave the cable how it is at the tranny with stock brackets and...
Thanks Joe! Thanks for confirming that it’ll work that way. I definitely jumped the gun. I ordered a 12ft cable from Jegs and paid next day shipping so it can get here right away. But since this 8...
Hey guys! I’m replacing my transmission shift rod on my 200 4R overdrive transmission for a cable. I ended up ordering an 8 ft B&M shifter cable. It barely makes it by connecting to tranny and going...
66s are the ones to have
Hi Michel. I’m about 70 miles away from San Bernardino but currently my van is down so no transport available. I drive a small Lexus IS250. I can take it apart there and stack both cushions in my...

Hey Joe. It’s never too late to put the tower back in the original spot on the cross member. There’s a bracket at 12...
Got mine as well. Awesome! Great stickers! Thanks Michael
