pennsyjeff Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Hey guys, need some input (help) here on an important issue. I have my old 711 engine out of my '64 B model. I am installing a little newer 673, but using my original quad box transmission. The 673 engine was coupled up to a newer 10 speed and the trans bell housing was deeper using a longer input shaft. my old quad box has a little shorter input shaft with a shallower bell housing. (The bell housings on both engines are the same and will work with no problem) What my question is, do I have to use my older style clutch from the 711/quad combo, and if I do, are there new clutch discs available so I can replace mine, or can I use the newer style clutch????? I have taken measurements but I seem to be coming up about an inch short on depth......if someone has done this let me know, or give me your phone ### and I will call and talk would be easier...thanks guys, if I can figure out how to post pictures I will....

scott Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 to keep it simple i would use the flywheel,clutch, and pressure plate off the 711. q-box will bolt to original position and you can use the original clutch linkage. i'm taking for granted this is a single disc clutch. scott Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/516-b61-engine-swap/#findComment-2343 Share on other sites More sharing options...
