The elbow is in great shape, no rips or anything.

the car had 125k miles on it, I havent pulled the tranny off the engine yet to see if the clutch has been replaced though, but from the looks of thie car (besides the destroyed front) it looks like the owner took good care of it mechanicaly...

well the heads are kind of a need-it-now thing so if you can't sell em to me then I'll have to keep looking

I striped my spark plug hole in my driver side head and was looking to pick up another head for replacement

I can pay for the head and give you my slightly damaged one for free

all it would need is a little machine work but I need to get my car back up asap

as for the airfoil I need to see how much money I got after doing the head swap but I'm still interested

if you decided to sell the head how much would you want?

Yeah, the six speed sparked my interest also. Let me know if it's still around after the above guys get dibs.

I was thinking of sitting on it and putting it in Janien's car with a new motor one day. No dibs here. If you want it for the '67, by all means get on it.

Dude... PITA.... I just did it on my 68 w/ a TKO600 5speed and it was annoying.. you gotta cut the hell outta the floorboard, and with yours, youd have to get a bellhousing adapter and all sorts of linkage problems (I believe that particular T56 requires a hydraulic t/o bearing). Youd be best off buying a D&D Viper T56 kit that comes with the proper flange to mate up, and all the extra stuff to install. Isnt your wifes car an auto also? Dont mean to discourage you at all, its certainly a worthwhile swap; I love it. But its a big job unless you have all the right parts.
