Thanks!
Nice work on it! I'm pretty sure all the way to the rear is park on these dodge transmissions. (I can crawl under my excursion later and verify) I made a bell crank type mech for the yellow 88 burb I did. On my 72 I went with a lokar cable shift set up.

On the trans mount I have made a new plate to bolt to the overdrive housing and used poly TH400 mounts several times. On some I have just modified the dodge plate and put the TH400 mount on it. I did this on my 40 Ford.

I actually have an auto world AC comp bracket for a VE I haven't used yet. This would mount the ac compressor on the cylinder head. They use a custom dual pulley they make to drive the comp. I just can't remember which pulley I have.

I did get a stock dodge compressor in the frame of my 72 but I had to do a lot of work to get it in there. It is really tight.
