T56 swap cross member, DIY
Well, here is the piece i made today, works well. I only have a 110 amp flux core welder, so i welded more than you would if you had a 220 amp.
I call it the "Spawn" cross member. Since it is spawned from the stocker. LOL

Well, the good welds are under the bad ones, i ran out of wire and used my buddys, his was a POS, so i did what i could. It is just a 305, but it is solid, i dropped it, kicked it, put weight on it, should be ok. That is why i have a spohn for my hard top and the big block.

Well, beat the hell out of it and it is holding great. But this is a carbed TBI 305. I might be lucky to have 200 HP. Keeps pulling with the performer RPM and carb compared to the TBI junk i removed.
