Hello everyone, I just signed up for this group, I need a little help. I recently purchased a 1982 K10 4x4 1/2 ton truck that had a TH350 transmission in it. The previous owner decider to put in a SM465 4 speed manual transmission instead. The transmission has been hooked up, so has the transfer case and drive shafts, it looks like all i have to do is install the clutch pedal assembly and hook up the linkage, but I have never owned a standard chevy before, and never really done a swap like this. All of my other chevys are auto so i don't have a reference material to go off of. I guess long story short I am kinda a green horn when it comes to this kind of swap and im looking for some knowledge and help on the subject. If anyone has been down this road before and could spare a little time to help out, I would really appreciate it. Thanks for reading, Tim.

That would be awesome, I appreciate it. I have never done this before so it would help a lot to have a reference material to go off of, thanks. Tim

Good job with the pic's yes it's a hard place to take pic's. Looks like you need some new rubbers for the peddles or some race peddles covers.
