Just a quick note on the rear tanny cover......The casting boss on the cover
side(where the loop speedo drive would go)can be machined to accept the
drive,the top hole can be plugged with a pipe plug.Had a machinist friend do
one a few years back. Dave

I'm still waiting to receive mine from them. Any loop cover will work and yes the 850T tranny has the same battery tray bolt holes. The only thing you would need to change on the tranny would be the rear cover as the speedo drive is facing more towards the middle than towards the outside like on a loop. Folks have also drilled a hole in the battery tray for their speedo cable instead of changing the cover as they can be hard to find. If you do use the 850T motor, make sure it's one that has the internal oil filter otherwise you gain nothing but a displacement increase. Or you can make some new mounts on the frame and just use the motor as is with the alternator.

So the adapter must give you a generater pully mount and the cover would give you the generater mount on the top and the holes to mount the engine to the frame, right!!Can you use any loopframe timming cover to work on the newer 850 engine? Does the 850 t have the same bolt holes on the tranny for the battery tray? I wonder if you could put the 850t engine and tranny in a Ambassador? Is that possible with out too many mods?

Now I will have one of each. I also plan on putting the alternator conversion on it. Paul -------------- Original message --------------
