      Dodge /6 applications. Gotta make it cheap or free; those guys are STINGY.

      Oh, and just talking out loud here, but Dodge 2.2/2.5/2.4 RWD conversion applications would be nice too.

      I'd like to see 4wd fullsize trucks covered like a replacement for the sm 468 with a usable 1st and od. The nv4500 is rare and expensive.

      Don't know if the Std A body kit works but I would love to see a 6-speed in my 71 Buick Sportwagon.

      G Bodies. They're rare to come factory with a standard trans and I think they're the next 55 Chevy or however you want to say inexpensive street/track car. They've been popular in drag racing and circle track for years, because they're relatively light and the stock style or slightly modified suspension works well in those situations. I've seen some big changes in G body Pro Touring suspension options over the last 5+ years I personally have owned one. Since they have the same wheelbase and track width as a 1st gen Camaro, and curb weight is only about 100 lbs heavier, they make a great inexpensive alternative to the more spendy "popular" P-T cars. With the changes in the 2016 SCCA CAM classification, G bodies are now in the right class where they can be competitive and I think we'll see more and more of them surfacing at P-T and SCCA events in the future. It would be really cool to see a kit specifically for a G body, my automatic has been great but I know for sure my wagon would love to be swapped to a gear banger! I will have my car apart after Christmas for a more powerful engine swap, wagons have the same chassis dimensions as a two door so let me know if I can get you any dimension measurements or what have you. I'd be happy to help move the G body world forward.

      Hey There,
      Here at HDC we are looking at adding some new products to our inventory and were looking for some feedback on cars and trucks that we can consider making kits for. We do have 6 speed Tremec T-56 kits for the G-Body now available. We do also offer some custom applications for Valiant's like the one that Hot Rod Chassis and Cycle put in the Violent Valiant SEMA build.

      For the square body (73-87) Chevy truck guys we offer a 5 and 6 speed kits that include everything for these trucks. We offer the same Hurst Blackjack offset shifter that we have offered for years with our other kits now for the pickup truck.

      Please give us a call and ask what we can put together for your car today! Many kits available and many more kits that we can custom build for your application just ask!

      HDC,
      It would be nice if you offered a kit to install a T56 Magnum behind an old school SBC in a 1st Gen Camaro. Not all of us are interested in installing an LSx and your current 1st gen Camaro T56 kit appears to be totally useless unless using a very specific LS engine/trans mount combo. I really like the design of your 1st gen Camaro T56 transmission cross member, unfortunately it does not work with my SBC/T56 Mag combo.

      We do offer a kit to do that in a first gen Camaro with a SB/BB engine. We offer a Quicktime steel scattershield that will adapt the SBc engine to a LS based T-56. If you would like to call in we could talk about the options that we have for your specific application,
      Thank you,

      Thank you,
      Colby,
      According to your web site the cross member I need is LS-6769 could you confirm that is the correct PN for a 1st gen Camaro with SBC/T56 LS Magnum using the QT bell housing?

      Thanks

      The LS-6769 is the correct Part# for the cross member that you need. The LS designation is for the LS based T-56 6 speed transmission. If you were running the TKO 5 speed transmission it would be the Part# 6769.

      For the Slant six guys, if we can find a bell housing to adapt the engine to either the 6 speed or the 5 speed transmission we can build a kit that will work for you.

      We always like doing the custom builds and adding new cars to our resume. If you have a car that you do not see on the website or have any questions regarding the products always feel free to ask or to give us a call at (707)-535-3030. My extension is 651 and you can always call me direct.
