: Did you have a big input (ball pilot brg) shaft or small (bushing) main drive gear? I have a 1.00 540 that I would like to use in my WC53 but the pilot gear is different than the 420 behind the 360 now.
: 59 Ford PU pedals work well for swingers on pw's. 60-62 Chev dual master cylinders (clutch and brake) are good too. I prefer separate cyls so you can use dual for brake only. 54 C1PW I have uses ford pedal w/dodge clutch and brk mast cyl from 68 D100. Also are you using the parking brake drum on the 540 o ron tcase?

The input shaft on my 540 transmission uses the pilot bushing. I had to get the end of the 360 crank bored for the bushing, since this engine was factory set for an automatic transmission. I retained the parking brake setup on the transfer case.
