    ok i said i would do this so first off heres the part u will need

    * flywheel for a 300inline 6 (90's models because of clutch options 10" or 11") 164 tooth
    * bellhouseing that the flywheel will fit in i used on off a 4 speed bull dog ( i used a 84 model)
    *clutch kit ( i would rec-amend a new one)
    * 300 Manuel starter (i think a 250 manuel or 302 manuel will work also)
    * dust shield (mine off a 3.8)
    *4 longer bolts for bolting the bellhousing to the block(about a half inch longer)
    * longer fork for throw bearing

    i found all this at 2 different junk yards cost about $90 this is including buying a new gear and having it put on the fly wheel and having nose changed on starter off of the 200 (manuel starter)

    hope this will help

    yes runs and drives great:chirp: i ran into a problem with the z bar because the 200 is not as wide as the 250 and the presser plate is a little harder to mash and it bent the clutch rode.... so im working on building a beafer clutch rode but yes iv drove it around the road today and pulled a few hills no shaking

    question

    i am going to pull the auto out for a manual on a 250 i have all the original 250 parts lined up but my question when reading the link they said the tail shaft on the overdrive unit will cause issues what did you have to do to overcome them. asking because i have a line on imposter for 30 bucks

    i think i see why, your talking about doing the motor into? I was talking about changing out a c4 for a manual tranny in a 77 that came with a 250 c4 combo
    what i was refering to is the link to describe the imposter tranny. part way down it says how the tail shaft housing is different in speedo port and shifter mount. also the fact i didn't relize you were reusing your old tranny sorry.:bowdown: and i lucked out i have a z bar from a 250
