I have a rebuilt T-10 that I'd like to put in my '57 Silver Hawk. It currently has a Flight-o-Matic with a one piece driveshaft. Can I use the flywheel, pressure plate, T/O bearing and starter from a '60 T-86? The pressure plate is a 10.5". How about the T-86 clutch linkage and T/O bearing fork? Some say the starter for the 4spd is different and using a 3spd starter will tear up the ring gear because the snout is a different length and the Bendix gear won't engage properly. If this is true, will moving the ring gear forward on the flywheel fix this? If not, anyone have a 4spd starter for sale?
Second related question: does Hurst (or anyone else) make a shifter for this tranny that I can use with my bench seat? I have the original shifter but it is pretty worn out, rusty and flimsy looking.
Thanks,
