Posting this for sale on this board first for a few weeks to give the dedicated 65GS crowd first shot at it.
Complete setup to convert a 65 GS from an automatic to a 4-speed manual with 3.36 posi rear end. Original pieces have all been beadblasted, rebuilt, and painted the correct colors. Other parts are either new or like new. Every piece is ready to install. Includes the following:
-close ratio, high-nickel gear set T10 4-speed with all new bearings, blocking rings, keys, springs, torque-lock sliders, backup light switch assembly, shifter and re-chromed handle with black shifter knob.
-brake and clutch pedal assembly with new pedal pads
-all clutch linkage with pins/clips and the upper z-bar bracket that welds to the frame
-lower z-bar bracket and self tapping bolts to attach to frame
-shifter boot and trim ring with screws
-lower z-bar accordian boot
-sheet metal hump for the floor
-bellhousing with cross shaft, clutch fork, external arm, ball, and bolts to mount to engine block

-set of used 65GS 3.36 gears with ring gear bolts
-Auburn posi differential for 3.36 and up gears. Was installed in a rear, but was removed and never run. Includes a bottle of the Auburn limited-slip additive that came with it.
-Centerforce I Gold clutch with 2000 miles on it. Was in my show car and just driven to shows and on/off the trailer. Includes pressure plate bolts for mounting
-new billet steel flywheel from TA performance with flywheel to crankshaft bolts
-clutch release bearing and collar
-pilot bushing for crankshaft
-steering column firewall plate with hole for clutch push rod
-boot and retainer for clutch push rod through firewall plate
-rubber bumper for clutch pedal stop
Only thing additional I can think of you would need to buy is some 80W-90 GL-4 gear oil for the transmission, and some setup shims for the rear end gears. This setup will also work in a 66, but the shifter is not exactly correct for a 66 since the 66 shifter mounted on the crossmember insead of the transmission tail housing. I have been collecting the parts for this setup for over 15 years and anyone that is familiar with the 65 GS knows how hard these items are to find. You can?t find the parts and rebuild them for this price--$3500. Can deliver to the Charlotte Autofair, or the 2015 BCA national meet in Springfield, IL. I am located in NC, 1 hour north of Charlotte. JMOS on this board drives from here to MI about once a month, so you may be able to arrange delivery with him along that route for a small fee.
