Hi all,
New member here in Southern California with kit number 188. Manta Mirage with small block Ford engine.
I have had the somewhat finished car in my garage for over 40 years. My working life was too busy and now I am retired and working again on the car. As you can imagine after 40 years (even in an inclosed garage) all rubber parts were cracked and need replacement.
I am interested in trying to find a Kelmark Chevy to Corvair transmission adapter and maybe replace my Ford small block with a Chevrolet.
After replacing the cracked motor mounts, a new engine damper, rebuilding the Holley carb, oil change, priming the oil pump to get oil pressure, etc., etc. The engine fired up, idles and does not smoke. A small victory for all of that.
Please let me know if anyone has a Kelmark adapter.
Best regards,
Mantawoody
