I found a three speed transfer, 3 spd tranny, both floor shift with a v8 bellhousing for really cheap. Currently I have the stock 1976 4 spd versions of these with the stock 2F. My motor needs work, but tranny is fne, so I was thinking that I might just throw in a V8. I know this will cost a littler more in the end but would be worth it for me. Plus with this setup, I could easily bring the truck back to stock if i wanted in the future.
Questions:
1.) I have read that this 3 spd transfer has a lower range and is desirable over my 4 spd transfer?
2.) Could I retain my 4 spd tranny and still bolt up to both the bellhousing and old 3 spd transfer if a better setup? Even if the v8 didnt work, could i still use the tranfer case to get a lower range?
3.) Other than motor mounts, would a v8 bolt right in without new crossmembers or clutch etc. I have already read about other requirments such as larger radiator.
Thanks for the help!!!!
