    Lost the ebay auction for the pistons.
    I forgot the auction ended Saturday morning and went to the junkyard instead of sitting behind a computer.
    The junkyard did have a 63 falcon in it. So I yanked the clutch stuff including the pedal assembly.

    If anyone needs a passenger fender or back doors this car had them.
    There was also a 65 fairlane with a 289 and a c4. The motor was complete carb to pan. Fan to rear if anyone is looking to swap a 6 to an 8 this car.

    I have one five bolt bell for the 260 in either the sprint or the stroker motor for the futura.
    I want two. I plan on swapping the sprint from 2sp auto to 5sp manual.

    Nathan, I have a t-5 for my svo motor in my 51 ford truck, and I think the input shaft is shorter than a t-5 for a V8, not sure about the input shaft splines, they may be different too, will do some more checking....john h

    Guess I better do some research.
    The slines are the same that I know.. the shaft diameter may vary, not an issue if I can find a clutch that works. The shaft length means I have to make a custom bell adapter. Which just makes the v8 swap more difficult.
