Carl, to convert the F150 transmission into a unit that with work in the Model A is not rocket science. Anyone with the equipment (lathe and milling machine) and the technical ability can do this conversion. I did my own conversion 12 years and 15,000 miles ago for much less money then the two vendors were charging at that time. Now, the needed machining is now much less if you use Mac's rear adapter plate and bell housing. Dave Delume makes a fine kit, but $3800 is $3800. Better in my pocket then his.
