    anyone ever convert a van from automatic to manual trans?

    There's nothing to be gained by going to a NP435 from a T-19. The T-19's were used in the big block gassers and diesels. All my gassers are either 351W's or 300 inline 6's.

    anyone ever convert a van from automatic to manual trans?

    I own two vans. The 89 E350 extended clubwagon 351W/C6 (soon to be 300/NP435/NP205 ) that I'm building. My other van is a 96 E250 extended cargo van with the 351W/E4OD around 250,000 miles. The 96 is my current daily driver/work truck/van. It has served me well for the last 5 or 6 years. It's...

    anyone ever convert a van from automatic to manual trans?

    John I'm pretty sure the pedals out the 81 would work with a Hydraulic slave set up. He would just need to modify the first piece of clutch linkage that goes thru the floor. Convert that linkage into a push rod. The hydraulic clutch master mounts to the floor where that linkage goes thru...

    10.25 van rear

    If I understand it correctly the Dana 60 was the rear in the SRW E350 vans and the D70 was in the dually E350 vans.

    10.25 van rear

    What year is the van rear diff? Are you sure it's a 10.25" and not a Dana 60? If it's the Dana 60 from right around 99, 2000 then it's no where close to be a bolt on deal. But it can be done with some welding.;Sweet This isn't my website but I found it when I was looking into doing this...

    gear reduction starter

    I ordered mine from here: http://www.db-starter-alternator.com/p-5652-ford-truck-case-69l-73l-diesel-starter-f250-f350-1985-1994-hi-tork-snd0027.aspx

    Superchared diesel inside here...

    None of the stock Eaton superchargers will produce an "insane" amount of boost.:D I don't think he'll gain enough blower rpm with just a pulley swap. Now Add the pulley swap to a jackshaft or gear drive and he'd get closer.;Sweet Make sure to post lots of pics when you do your install.;Sweet...

    Superchared diesel inside here...

    I was afraid you'd have issues making much of any boost with the M90 on the 6.9L. I've seen guys struggle to make 5lbs of boost with them on the 300's. I don't know if you'll be able to go with a small enough pulley on the Eaton to make it work. It might be time for a jackshaft.:D ;Sweet Or...

    Superchared diesel inside here...

    I was trying to help but no one wanted to listen so I just decided to go with the flow. The M90 was design for engines up to 5.0L. But there is one hell of a difference between a 4.6L/5.0L and a 6.9L/7.3L. To make a decent amount of boost you are going to have to spin the M90 much faster then...

    Guess I'm wrong then.:rolleyes: :hail I've only been messing with the Eaton SC's for 8 years or so. Guess I need to do some more research. Good luck.;Sweet

    Superchared diesel inside here...

    I would agree if we were talking about a small 4cylinder diesel, but not a 7.3L! I won't run a single M90 on my 300 inline 6 gasser because it's too small!:D The 300 is like a gas powered diesel. I'm going to go with a single M112 on my 300. The M90 will never build much of any boost on a 7.3L...

    My WTF moment of the day...

    My 84 F250 4x4 gasser had the same deal. I had a hell of a time trying to get the driver side rear tire off until I figured it out!LOL

    Superchared diesel inside here...

    Nice work but that Eaton is way too small! :D Those Eaton M90's came on a 3.8L V6 gassers. I've seen guys running two of them on a 5.0L gasser. Running a single one on a 7.3L has to be choking that engine.:D You need a couple M112's off a Lightning/Cobra or GT500. Then you'd be able to make a...

    Update: 88 Bronco dually diesel.

    I like Broncos. But for some reason it reminds me of the tractors in the "Cars" movie. I'm expecting it to tip over backwards and stand on it's tailgate!:D

    Gear vendors is too weak!:D I'm going with a divorced mount Brownie box. That also gives me an underdrive gear just in case I need a lower gear for pulling a mountain or something.:rotflmao

    That's what the 2 overdrive gears are for!;Sweet I can't stand an automatic in a truck!! It's a truck! You are suppose to manually shift gears!!!!!!:D

    I'd never give up the 5.13's!!:D The thing pulls like a motha with them!LOL I'm just going to add a Brownie auxiliary transmission to add a second OD for a little more top end speed.;Sweet

    My 91 F-Super duty has the stock Dana 80 with disc brakes, 5.13 gears and 10 lug rims.:D

    No problem!;Sweet I'll be ordering the parts from them for mine over the winter here. I found them while searching the net for the parts. I can't afford $900 to replace it so I've got no choice but to fix mine.:D Only oil spots on my driveway from the truck are from that brake...

    manual econoline parts

    I don't think the ZF is junk. They just aren't my favorite.:D Like I said I've had my issues with them in the past. If and when I have any issues with the one in my 91 it's getting yanked in favor of a T19. I'll just have to double up the Brownie boxes or take my chances with a AA ranger OD...
