    Throttle cable bracket

    Converting from a 6.2 to a 400 SBC. Just trying to figure out where this bracket mounts, now that I know I will have to modify it to work with a Holley, actually going to run a Quickfuel. Thanks for the help!

    Throttle cable bracket

    Does anyone have a pic of where the throttle cable bracket goes/mounts on a 350? Converting to a 350 and acquiring parts. Truck is a 1982. Thanks!

    This is probably a bad idea, but I'm too cheap to pay for a tow.

    Pay 100 bucks and get AAA. Then get it towed.

    6.2 to 350 swap

    I always thought the Detroit Diesels looked a lot like a 350 with a big spider on top.

    6.2 to 350 swap

    That crossed my mind, but I hate computer controlled engines.

    6.2 to 350 swap

    Nothing will be going into the dumpster! I'm a car parts hoarder LOL. Besides I want to be able to go back if I come across a good 6.2

    6.2 to 350 swap

    Ring gear on my T400 flex plate exploded,destroyed the transmission and unfortunately broke the starter off the block. Truck only has 54K miles on it. Hard to find a decent 6.2. Came across a nice SBC 400 to swap in. I think I will go with a 700R4 instead of thr T400.

    6.2 to 350 swap

    Fill me in on the K5 tank swap? Sounds intereting.

    6.2 to 350 swap

    Curious why you swapped tanks instead of just cleaning and using the ones you had?

    6.2 to 350 swap

    About to get underway with the swap. Are there any potential issues to watch out for? Or pretty much a straight up swap?

    Swapping from auto to manual trans

    Then I'm guessing finding a starter that would mesh with the 6.2 flywheel and have enough torque to spin the 6.2 would be a challenge.

    Swapping from auto to manual trans

    Does the starter still bolt to the block when running a four speed? Or does it bolt to the bell housing?

    6.2 to 350 swap

    Has anyone gone from a 6.2 to a 350? What is involved in doing a swap like this? Weighing my options since the T400 blew and took the starter bolt mounts with it. Thanks for any advice!

    When you get a chance, shoot me a PM of what you want for the pedals. I'm still weighing my options as to how to go about getting the truck back on the road. Thanks!

    Swapping from auto to manual trans

    Understood! I'm in the Sierra Nevada foothills as well. I'll let you know on the pedals as soon as I decide to go manual.

    Swapping from auto to manual trans

    Where are you located? Do you have just the pedals? Or do you have all the linkage too?

    Swapping from auto to manual trans

    I have a bell housing and flywheel, assuming they are correct. I am fine with the mechanical clutch.

    Swapping from auto to manual trans

    I am considering swapping my 1982 GMC with the 6.2 diesel from the Turbo 400 to a 4 Speed manual. What do I need to do this swap and is it doable? Thanks!
