Here is a couple shots of the trans I just got today 3/13/02 from Godley transmission in Georgia. This is a Powerglide with a 1.82 gear and Turbo shaft. It has the JW Ultra bell, Deep pan, trans shield, 10" converter and a JW flex plate.
Well as my luck would have it my cross member would not work with the glide. It was about an inch and a half too high. So, I ended up spending the day making a cross member, of course I had to make sure everything was lined up and all so back in went the bare block to mount everytthing to the plates. I used 1 1/2 square tubing, I bent a piece of flat 1/8" X 2" in a "U" shape for the trans to sit and bolt to and weld the square tubing to but it was bending in the middle so I added a piece of flat 1/4" to the bottom and welded that up and it don't bent no more, I also use flat steel bolt to the frame and then welded the square tubing to it. I guess it came out OK.
