Need A Little Help Please
Hi, I am so excited. I just finished putting an 69' Olds 455 in my 86' camaro
. The only thing is that the bar that comes from the rearend (I think it is called the Torsion Bar) is supposed to bolt to the tranny, well I now have a THM350 and there is no place to bolt the mount to? ANy suggestions.
Thanks, I appreciate any help.
