Nathan,
Most of the info you need can be found on the net, follow the link section of
my website to the BBS archive or the archive of this list.
A list of everything, that I had to purchase to do my 77 B, can be found at <A
HREF="http://members.aol.com/wake074/costs.htm";>Costs</A>
"http://members.aol.com/wake074/costs.htm";.
A pic of the 3 / 4 speed GM bellhousing is also on my site. Try looking at <A

I think the consensus is that you won't be able to use the stock exhaust
manifolds.
Hope this helps,
Glenn
