The original B&M Hydro-Stick transmissions were made from the old cast iron 4-speed Hydros. They sure didn't have sluggish shifts.
I wonder if B&M still make parts for those? Or if you could find a NOS kit somewhere...? Anyway, as light as that truck is (compared to an old Oldsmobile), it may not be a problem.
Uh.., Don.., We ARE old men...

Yep, I had a cast iron '56 hydro in my altered that was "supposedly" built by B&M, but I never could confirm it. However, it did shift like gangbusters and the injected 301 never hurt it any.

Thanks Ken, PM sent. Ok, I'll race you, but we gotta negotiate like they do it on Pinks. I want 16 lengths and I get to use nitros.

Well hell! I'll tow my truck out there and buy you all a beer at the finish line. Originally Posted by Dave Severson

A trip like this would be fun just from a road trip perspective!

Way Kewl Plan----better get my butt back out in the garage and get back to work on mine.... The "touch ups" on the front end turned into a complete redo..... More lessons on picking the wrong people for "friends", I guess..... Originally Posted by stovens
