Hi
I'm from Argentina. I have a chevy Camino 1980. It came with a 229 v6 3 speed manual trans from factory.
Now It has a 454 Gen V with a muncie M20 installed. Hydraulic clutch setup (Camaro 2000 master and Ram hydraulic throwout bearing HD). The last thing I'm doing it is rear end swap.
I broke an axle shaft of stock GM 7.5 2.73 gear. So i'm installing a GM 8.2 (3.73 posi with forged axle shaft) from a chevelle 67.
I have many photos of the mods if anybody is interested.
