Price Check: Complete 833 swap

[68CoronetRT]

Any input would be helpful. I'm over the 4 speed manual and want to go to a 727 trans. The car was originally a column shift 3 speed. Now it would be a 727 3 speed with a Gear Vendor behind it most likely. Floor shifted.

Anyway, what do you think is a good asking price for a 98% complete 4 speed swap? Minus the tunnel hump which I'm leaving in the car. 23 spline trans, clutch is unknown but operates fine, 143 tooth 11" flywheel, 1 pistol grip shifter and 1 Hurst ball end shifter, both for a B body non console car 68-70 I believe. Seems to have the Hurst aftermarket gate/shifter(whatever its call where the shift handle bolts to), all the linkages for the pedals and a crossmember.

Just looking for a ball park. This auto swap isnt looking to be very cheap to do it right the first time.

If it were a console it would be more expensive as the shifter handles alone are big bucks. Ditto with the 18 spline vs 23 spline. With that in mind... pedals, linkage, bell, flywheel, clutch, shifter, handle(s), and transmission would get you maybe $700-750 (at least the last time I bought one). Certain bell housings are worth more than others if you can get the casting number. If you have the 4-speed specific cross member to go with it you can get more (the auto version is different - but also cheaper at about $20). You could keep your pedal assembly for the auto - the clutch pedal comes off and there's a spacer in its place.

For reference: I have sold perfect 23 spline transmissions for $250 and bells for $100 and purchased clutch/flywheel/TO bearing for $100 and cross members for ~$100. Pedals are all over but I think "restored" sets bring $250. Shifters themselves (depending on version) may bring $100(?). Handles are hard to figure because condition and application are the big indicators. I have bought a non-console ball version for $20. The pistol grip version may be worth selling individually. Linkages I haven't priced lately. Certain rods are hard to find sometimes so that can affect price.
