Did you have to do anything to the trans tunnel in order to the the Nash 5 speed in it? Neat car!

No modification was done to the tunnel for the transmission other than a cross member.The dimensions along the top of it are similar to a muncie 4 speed it is larger at the bottom of the case and hangs down more there. The Tremic 5 and 6 speeds are the ones that require the tunnel to be cut out as they stick up through the floor more.

The car should be around 3000 lbs the engine is a 355 with 12.5 pistons, Eagle crank and rods, has Dart aluminum heads painted orange so they don't stand out with the old look, a Lunati .630 solid roller cam,800 Holley carb and a Chevy Bow tie intake. I would guess it is in the 500 hp range.The rear gear is a 3.73 with a Moser spool and axles. You can only run 26 inch tall tires so you don't need much more gear using the 5 speed because of it's 3.25 first gear.
