Thank you for that info. I was reading on another message board that I googled, after I posted this question, and one person said when he did this conversion, he had to shorten the drive shaft. Is this true. I started reading the info on the link you gave me, but right now I don't have to to read it all. But if you have the answere before I finish reading the info on that link, go ahead and post it. I will still read the info on the link though. Thank you.
BTW, do you know about how much it cost to rebuild the 4 speed that is in the 66?
