Yes, it's in a 1970 tho, not with a Stude engine. I didn't have to use Dave's kit, altho I have picked his brain a bit on the performance aspects of the transmission. That's the reason he probably associated me with a Stude install. I have owned an R2 before and can comment on what you may have to resolve in the process of getting it in. Easy things: Change the driveshaft - You have to get one made to fit and balanced - Usually a good truck driveline place is quickest - measurement is after the trans is bolted in - You have to acquire a good yoke for the trans from a similar install Camaro or Vette - measure the distance , center (bottom) yoke to center (bottom) yoke. You have to provide the yoke to the driveshaft guy so he knows what universal to use. Change the Shifter quadrant. 700 is a 4 speed - Even tho I used a Corvette console assembly, you may be able to just hook up the existing shifter rod to the trans. The internal detent pattern will change the location of the shift lever, so you'll have to get a shifter quadrant lens from an 82 or something that used the 200R4 ( same pattern) I've heard that the leverage on this fiot is wrong, so you may have to use a GM shifter. The 700 trans mount is almost right on the original Stude support. You just have to enlarge the holes in the crossmember and use big washers. I believe these bolt hole threads on the 700 are metric also, as was the nut holding the shift detent lever on. More tenuous... The one thing I would be concerned about is the height of the trans in the tunnel with a 63-64 Stude. With my car, the body was raised to accomodate the GM engine ( supposedly), so the trans had 1 - 2 inches of clearance in the tunnel. The body on Studes, as you know , is right down on the frame and the space is significantly less. The exhaust on the drivers side has to be modified as the 700 pan is bigger overall and offset to the left.. I took my intermediate pipes, reversed them and had the ends swedged to fit on the opposite way. This gave me the wider cut around the pan, but then you have to enlarge the pass-thru holes in the X-member to allow the wider routing. You have to fashion a means of attaching the TV throttle cable to the carb ( new Carter or Edelbrock), then raise the carb to avoid the manifold interfering with the TV ear attachment on the carb. You also have to figure out a way to establish a TV cable lock mechanism behind the carb to hold the TV cable in place. Then you have to figure out a way to accurately adjust the initial TV pressure. If you screw this up, you can trash the trans and quickly if you run out and do a power shift. I recommend a guage attached to the main line pressure port , right over the shift lever on the trans body. The pressures can be different for various applications.. You should be able to feel the shift in all ranges 1-2, 2-3 and 3-4 at moderate throttle. If the 3-4 is just an rpm drop, you have to increase the cable pull a it and put up with a harder 1-2 and 2-3 or else there's a pack of clutches that will be wiped You have to wire the torque converter lockup to function automatically or on demand. Depending on your axle ratio, the heat buildup can be dramatic. I have a temp guage on mine and when it gets to 210, it's switched on lockup. You can watch the needle drop as you drive. Heat is the big enemy of this trans. Most 700 failures involve the 4th gear system. In fear of damaging mine, I added an external filter, added an external cooler and ventilated the lower converter housing ( then added an air scoop that became the best bug catcher you could find) .... In 4th and lockup, the engine loafs around 1600-2000 rpm at 60. depending on your axle ratio. You have to be careful not to hook a 700 up to a hi-perf engine unless you have a radically high rear, since the cruising rpm will be outside the lowest operating envelope of the engine. This is kind of like my situation as the range on my Jasper is 2100-6800. My mileage drops to about 14-15 unless I can cruise at 80-90 mph ( where can you do that anymore.) that;'s why my lockup is switched, so I can drive without it on cool days ( it adds 2-300 rpm while off) I never test drove a car with a 700 before doing this and was surprised at the 1st gear performance. In fact, I didn't like it. My axle is 3:54 and from a standing start, it's zip-bam-TYmam. The 1-2 shift is hard and comes in fast, I was told that after 2-3000 miles it softens, but has'nt yet on mine That's all I can think of. There are some photos on the website regarding my install ===================== The TV cable attachment point on the throttle linkage: In relation to the throttle shaft centerpoint, the TV cable mount is "about 1.094 - 1.125" below and about .025 - .5 inches to the rear of the shaft pivot point You should not use the standard kick-down cable hole in the Edelbrock for your 700 TV cable connection. When the throttle opens and pulls the cable, the "geometry" of the swing from that connection is incorrect. The distance from the pivot point on the throttle and the geometry of the "swing" as the cable pulls is the "critical" aspect of the TV cable attachment. You "MUST" buy the adaptor if you expect the trans to shift correctly and last any period of time.
