American Powertrain has a huge array of kits available to make swapping a five or six speed manual transmission a cinch in all types of classic cars and trucks. Their classic C10 kit is recognized as one of the easiest to use, most comprehensive, and best fitting solutions out there. They have all the parts you need from the back of the block right to the axle that’ll make this job a great experience for anyone doing the work.
One of the coolest things is that if this is a swap from an automatic to a stick you are covered and if the rig already has a four speed one of the company’s innovative Maglink bell housings will handle that part of the conversation as smoothly as you can imagine.
Add some gears, add some fun, add some performance, and get your shift together with American Powertrain!
