I'm in the process of gathering parts for a rat rod that I'm putting together for a national build off. It's a 301 from a 7020 tractor. Does anyone have experience with putting a conventional transmission behind one? I'd like to run a Spicer 6+. Where I'm running a 2 speed rear from an old farm truck, the 7th gear overdrive in the 6+ will give me excellent low rpm highway cruising speeds.

find a power unit with a sae bell housing... I've been interested in something like this, but building a gooseneck toter, but using an Allison auto..Google fuller transmissions, you can find out all kinds meet stuff such as ratios, trans weight, etc.

Biggest concern once adapt to Automotive is fuel system, the tractor pumps do not have advance/retard mechanisms as far as I am aware and cannot adapt to altitude changes. May want to look into that as well.

Thanks for the input. I plan on running a p7100 pump from a 5.9 Cummins I found to make it more drivable. As far as a transmission is concerned, I think I'm going to end up with an NV4500 5 speed from a Dodge pickup. I'm beginning to think this is my best option...?
